Iran-Pakistan-India (IPI) Gas Pipeline, also known as the Peace Pipeline, was a proposed gas pipeline which was cancelled after India withdrew from the trilateral deal.[1][2] India withdrew from the plan in 2009 due to pressure from the USA.[3] Iran and Pakistan later went ahead with a new iteration of the plan, and the Iran-Pakistan Gas Pipeline is currently under construction[1].

Location

Gas would be delivered from the South Pars Gas Fields through Baluchistan (in western Pakistan) into India.
