  1. Question 1

    Q1. The Indus Water Treaty gives Pakistan rights mainly to the western rivers. Which river below is NOT one of those western rivers?

    • A) Indus
    • B) Jhelum
    • C) Chenab
    • D) Ravi

    Answer: Ravi

    Explanation: Under the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty, Pakistan received exclusive rights to the three western rivers (Indus, Jhelum, Chenab), while India received rights to the three eastern rivers (Ravi, Beas, Sutlej). The Ravi, being an eastern river, was allocated to India, meaning it is not among Pakistan's western rivers under the treaty.
