It’s a dam — but also a diplomatic weapon. A construction site — but also a symbol of shifting power in South Asia. And above all, it’s a lifeline for a country desperate for stability and self-reliance. In war-scarred Afghanistan, where water has often been as scarce as peace, a new structure is rising on the banks of the Kabul River — and it may change everything. The Shahtoot Dam, funded entirely by India at a cost of $236 million, isn’t just about water. It’s about influence, alliances, and asserting presence in a region where every drop carries geopolitical weight. While India calls it a gift — a token of friendship and development — Pakistan sees it as a potential chokehold on a vital resource. The dam, once completed, will provide drinking water to over 2 million people in Kabul and irrigate thousands of hectares of farmland. But it also threatens to tighten the flow into Pakistan, escalating regional anxieties around water security. Republic brings you exclusive ground reports from the heart of the project — at the dam site in Lalandar Valley and the nearby villages — where the gratitude of locals is palpable, but the geopolitical implications are even more striking. This is not just about infrastructure. This is about strategy. About power. And about who controls the future of South Asia’s water.
Tonight, we bring you more accounts from the Afghanistan–Pakistan border — a humanitarian catastrophe unraveling in real time, with thousands caught in the political crossfire. These are not terrorists or criminals, but families. Men, women, children — some born and raised in Pakistan — suddenly uprooted, tossed across the border with nothing but despair packed into plastic bags. At the heart of this crisis is Pakistan’s ongoing deportation drive targeting Afghan refugees. A cold, calculated move that has stripped people of homes, dignity, and basic human rights. No warning. No compassion. Just the blunt force of a state machinery pushing its own burden over the fence. This is the story from the Torkham gate, near the Durand border.
