Abstract
International watercourses are the only supplementary sources of water for the many states having arid or semiarid climatic conditions that could economically be developed to bridge the rapidly increasing gap between demand and supply. In absence of any international law to deal with uses of international watercourses other than navigational purposes, agreements among co-riparian states are very important for the development of an entire basin. Although the U. N. Convention on the Uses of International Rivers for non-navigational purposes was adopted by the U. N. General Assembly in 1997 and after the rectification of 35 Member States, it has been functioning since 2014, but the importance of the negotiation processes that resulted in numerous successful agreements on water resource management can never be denied. This document provides an historical analysis of the negotiating process which culminated into the Indus Waters Treaty.
