UN Military Observer Group in India and Pakistan

The UN Military Observer Group in India and Pakistan (UNMOGIP) was established in 1949 to monitor ceasefire agreements and reduce tensions in the Kashmir region, contested by both countries. Following the first Indo-Pakistani war, UNMOGIP helps ensure that both sides adhere to ceasefire terms, conducts patrols, and reports on violations. Its presence aims to promote peace and stability in the area and support ongoing diplomatic efforts. UNMOGIP operates under the United Nations and reflects the international community's commitment to resolving the conflict peacefully.
