Kashmir Accords

The Kashmir Accords refer to agreements aimed at resolving the conflict over the Kashmir region between India and Pakistan. The most notable are the Simla Agreement (1972), which laid the groundwork for peaceful dialogue and respect for borders, and the Lahore Declaration (1999), fostering improved relations and peace talks. These accords seek to address issues like territorial disputes, military tensions, and promote diplomatic solutions to prevent conflict escalation. While they have encouraged dialogue, a final resolution on Kashmir's status remains unresolved, making the accords important steps toward peace but not definitive solutions.
