Introduction:-
Since 1947 Indo-Pak Relations have been under the shadows of suspicions, misunderstanding,
disappointment, tensions and wars. Both states never succeeded to win the mutual trust of each
other because of their unresolved disputes and lack of cooperation between them. But for this
purpose, both countries have to overcome their short-sighted plans and they have to reconsider
their policies towards each other.
Massacre of refugees:-
After the partition of British India large number of refugees moved from both countries (
India and Pakistan).
Refugees were killed from both sides.
Approximately 4 million Hindus Moved from Pakistan to India and 5-6 million muslims
moved from India to Pakistan.
The groups of Sikhs and Jathas killed a large number of Muslim refugees .
To take revenge Muslims also killed large number of Hindu refugees.

India launched an operation and captured large area of kashmir. Fighting continues
through the second half of 1948.. The war officially ends on January 1, 1949, when the
united nations arranges a ceasefire. Pakistan controls roughly one-third of the state,
referring to it as azad (free) jammu and kashmir.
1954 :–
The accession of Jammu and Kashmir to India is ratified by the state's constituent assembly.
1957: –
The Jammu and Kashmir constituent assembly approves a constitution. India, from the point
of the 1954 ratification and 1957 constitution, begins to refer to Jammu and Kashmir as an
integral part of the Indian union.
1963: -
Following the 1962 Sino-Indian war, the foreign ministers of India and Pakistan - Swaran
Singh and Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto - hold talks under the auspices of the British and Americans
regarding the Kashmir dispute. The specific contents of those talks have not yet been
declassified, but no agreement was reached.
1964: -
Following the failure of the 1963 talks, Pakistan refers the Kashmir case to the UN Security
Council.
4
Indo-Pak 1965 War The largest engagement of the war takes place in the Sialkot sector,
where between 400 and 600 tanks square off in an inconclusive battle.
The war b/w both countries lasted for seventeen days (5th september TO 23rd
september).
By September 22, both sides agree to a UN mandated ceasefire, ending the war that
had by that point reached a stalemate, with both sides holding some of the other's
territory.
War of 1971:-
India and Pakistan go to war a third time, this time over East Pakistan.
The conflict begins when the central Pakistani government in West Pakistan, led by
Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, refuses to allow Awami League leader Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, a
Bengali whose party won the majority of seats in the 1970 parliamentary elections, to
assume the premiership.
A Pakistani military crackdown on Dhaka begins in March.
War of 1971 India becomes involved in the conflict in December, after the Pakistani air
force launches a pre-emptive strike on airfields in India's northwest.
India then launches a coordinated land, air and sea assault on East Pakistan.
The Pakistani army surrenders at Dhaka, and its army of more than 90,000 become
prisoners of war.
Hostilities lasted 13 days, making this one of the shortest wars in modern history.
East Pakistan becomes the independent country of Bangladesh on December 6, 1971.

alter unilaterally, and which "shall be respected by both sides without prejudice to the
recognised position of either side".
1974:-
The Kashmiri state government affirms that the state “is a constituent unit of the Union of
India”.
Pakistan rejects the accord with the Indian government.
On May 18, India detonates a nuclear device at Pokhran, in an operation codenamed
"Smiling Buddha".
India refers to the device as a "peaceful nuclear explosive".
1989:-
Armed resistance to Indian rule in the Kashmir valley begins.
Muslim political parties, after accusing the state government of rigging the 1987 state
legislative elections, form militant wings.
Pakistan says that it gives its "moral and diplomatic" support to the movement, reiterating
its call for the earlier UNsponsored referendum.
India says that Pakistan is supporting the insurgency by providing weapons and training
to fighters, terming attacks against it in Kashmir "cross-border terrorism".
Pakistan denies this. Militant groups taking part in the fight in Kashmir continue to
emerge through the 1990s, in part fuelled by a large influx of "mujahideen" who took part
in the Afghan war against the Soviets in the 1980s.
6
Agreements on advance notification of military exercises and
movements (1991):-
The two countries sign agreements on providing advance notification of military exercises,

ease tensions.
Main Events:-

Pakistani soldiers climbed up the snow-bound passes and occupied some high positions
from the Siachin Glacier.
Pakistan was in a strong position to cut off supplies and winter dumping and thus force
Indians to withdraw Indians ultimately complained to the International community and
7
finally on pressure by the USA, Pakistani Prime Minister, Nawaz Sharif, ordered the
withdrawal of troops.
India used a large number of Artillery guns and also used their air force against Pakistani
positions.
Two Indian aircraft were also shot down by Stinger Missiles.
Main Events Point 5353 is the highest point in Drass-Kargil area.
Its recapture was the most important objective for Indian forces during the Kargil Conflict.
But they could never come close to it. Point 5353 is still occupied by Pakistan, even 14
years after the battle.
India has now given up the post as ‘untenable.
Conclusion:-
Pakistan failed to get support of international community during Kargil war and had to withdraw.
8

Pakistani Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani and Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh
meet.
The Indian government continues to take a stern line with Pakistan.

asking it to prosecute Hafiz Mohammad Saeed, the head of Jamaatud-Dawa, an Islamic
charity with ties to Lashkar-eTaiba.
Rising tension along the LoC (2010):-
In January, Pakistani and Indian forces exchange fire across the LoC in Kashmir.

In September, the prime ministers of India and Pakistan meet in New York on the sidelines
of the UN General Assembly. Both the leaders agree to end tension between armies of both
sides in the disputed Kashmir.
2014 :-
On February 12, India and Pakistan agree to release trucks detained in their respective
territories, ending a three week impasse triggered by seizure of a truck in India
administered Kashmir coming from across the de facto Line of Control for allegedly
carrying brown sugar.
On May 1, Pakistan's Army chief General Raheel Sharif calls Kashmir the "jugular vein"
of Pakistan, and that the dispute should be resolved in accordance with the wishes and
aspirations of Kashmiris and in line with UNSC resolutions for lasting peace in the region.
On May 25, Pakistan releases 151 Indian fishermen from its jails in a goodwill gesture
ahead of swearing-in ceremony of Narendra Modi as prime minister.

Minister Nawaz Sharif in New Delhi. Both sides express willingness to begin new era of
bilateral relations.
2015:-
In November 2015, the new Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi and Pakistani Prime
Minister Nawaz Sharif agreed to the resumption of bilateral talks; the following month, Prime
Minister Modi made a brief, unscheduled visit to Pakistan while en route to India, becoming the
first Indian Prime Minister to visit Pakistan since 2004. Despite those efforts, relations between
the countries have remained frigid, following repeated acts of cross-border terrorism. According
to a 2017 BBC World Service poll, only 5% of Indians view Pakistan's influence positively, with
85% expressing a negative view, while 11% of Pakistanis view India's influence positively, with
62% expressing a negative view.
11
2016:-
In September 2016, a terrorist attack on an Indian military base in Indian-administered Kashmir,
the deadliest such attack in years, killed 19 Indian Army soldiers. India's claim that the attack had
been orchestrated by a Pakistan-supported jihadist group was denied by Pakistan, which claimed
the attack had been a local reaction to unrest in the region due to excessive force by Indian security
personnel. The attack sparked a military confrontation across the Line of Control, with an
escalation in ceasefire violations and further militant attacks on Indian security forces. As of
December 2016, the ongoing confrontation and an increase in nationalist rhetoric on both sides
has resulted in the collapse of bilateral relations, with little expectation they will recover.
