India Says No to Water Court Decision
Introduction
India does not accept a new decision from the Court of Arbitration. India says the court is not legal.
Main Body
India says the court's decision on May 15, 2026, is wrong. India believes the court broke the 1960 water agreement. Because of this, India will not follow the court's rules. In April 2025, terrorists attacked Pahalgam. After this, India stopped following the water treaty. India says it will not start the treaty again until Pakistan stops helping terrorists. India and Pakistan share water from the Indus rivers. Usually, Pakistan gets 80 percent of the water and India gets 20 percent. Now, the two countries do not agree on these rules.
Conclusion
India will not listen to the court. India will stop the water treaty until Pakistan changes its security rules.
Learning
The Power of 'NOT'
In this text, India uses the word not to say 'no' very clearly. For A2 learners, this is the easiest way to change a positive sentence into a negative one.
How it works:
- India accepts the decision. India does not accept the decision.
- The court is legal. The court is not legal.
- India will listen. India will not listen.
Action Words for the Future
Look at the word will. We use it when we talk about things that happen later.
- India will not follow...
- India will stop...
Simple Rule:
Will + Not + Action = Something that is not going to happen in the future.
Understanding Percentages
Numbers help us see a clear picture. In the text, we see:
- 80 percent (A big part)
- 20 percent (A small part)
When you see % or percent, it is talking about a piece of a whole thing (like a cake or a river).
