Q5)The Tranquil River serves as the shared border between Northlandia and Southlandia. Northlandia recently constructed a huge dam upstream, significantly reducing the river's flow into Southlandia. This led to severe water shortages in Southlandia, which had an impact on daily life and agriculture. Southlandia made the decision to take the matter to the International Court of Justice (ICJ), alleging that Northlandia had broken its water-sharing agreements.

Question:

Which area of law is Southlandia principally relying upon to challenge Northlandia's conduct before the ICJ?

Option: 1

A) Environmental Law


Option: 2

B) Civil Law


Option: 3

C) Criminal Law


Option: 4

D) International Law

Treaties, conventions, and accepted international practises all fall under the umbrella of international law, which regulates interactions between sovereign states. Southlandia's assertion that Northlandia violated water-sharing agreements and its determination to appeal to the ICJ show that this issue is relevant. hence option D is correct option .
