United Nations Commission for India and Pakistan (UNCIP)

The United Nations Commission for India and Pakistan (UNCIP) was established in 1948 to address the conflict between India and Pakistan over the Kashmir region. After both nations gained independence, tensions escalated, leading to war. The UNCIP's role was to mediate, promote peace, and recommend solutions, including a plebiscite for the Kashmiri people to determine their future. Although it aimed to facilitate dialogue and resolution, the commission's efforts have faced challenges, with ongoing disputes over Kashmir remaining unresolved, thus continuing to impact relations between India and Pakistan.
