Operations in Jammu and Kashmir (1947-1948)

Operations in Jammu and Kashmir (1947-1948) refer to India's military efforts to regain control of the region after Pakistan-backed tribal invasions. Following independence, the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir faced invasion, prompting India to organize military campaigns to defend the territory. Indian forces fought to stop the fighters and restore order, gradually pushing back infiltrators. These operations aimed to secure the region’s integration into India, resulting in the establishment of a ceasefire and the creation of the Line of Control. This marked the beginning of the ongoing India-Pakistan conflict over Kashmir.
