    I’m no dam engineer, but it looks like the reservoir is fairly close to full already. I assume overtopping the dam would be Very Bad.

    I don’t know if the dam is valuable to Pakistan in terms of hydroelectric power, but if the water is more valuable, I’d be considering blowing the dam. I’m sure India would take it as an act of war, though.
