India Rejects Reports of Deliberately Causing Flooding in Pakistan

India has rejected reports that it is deliberately causing flooding in Pakistan by releasing river waters. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said that the allegations are baseless and contrary to the facts. The MEA referred to statements from Pakistani authorities acknowledging a rise in river levels due to heavy monsoon rain in areas across the border. The incident has sparked tensions between the two countries, with Pakistan accusing India of deliberately causing flooding. The Indian government has maintained that it is not responsible for the flooding and that the allegations are baseless.
