Indo-Pakistani War

The Indo-Pakistani Wars refer to a series of conflicts between India and Pakistan, primarily over the disputed region of Kashmir, following the partition of British India in 1947. The first major war occurred in 1947-1948, leading to a UN-mediated ceasefire and the establishment of a Line of Control. Further wars followed in 1965 and 1971, the latter resulting in the creation of Bangladesh from East Pakistan. Tensions remain high, with both nations possessing nuclear arms, impacting regional stability and international relations in South Asia. The conflicts have deep historical roots and continue to affect socio-political dynamics today.
