Indo-Pak relations have been defined by the violent partition of British India in 1947, the Jammu & Kashmir conflict and the numerous military conflicts fought between the two nations. The partition of British India was one of the largest human migrations ever seen and sparked bloody massacres of refugees across the region. It displaced up to 12.5 million people, with an estimated loss of life of 1 million. India became a secular nation with a Hindu majority population and a large Muslim minority, while Pakistan emerged as an Islamic republic with an overwhelming Muslim majority population and a very small population subscribing to other faiths.

Kashmir: Due to political differences between the two countries, the territorial claim of Kashmir has been the subject of wars in 1947, 1965 and a limited conflict in 1999 and frequent ceasefire violations and promotion of rebellion within the Indian side of Jammu and Kashmir. The then princely state remains an area of contention and is divided between the two countries by the Line of Control (LoC), which demarcates the ceasefire line agreed post-1947 conflict. Siachen glacier “Sian Temperate, Canton TOC (95°F) sete tt nese at g ‘am he Sunes rd. rear zene Siachen Glac “Siachen Glacier is located in Northern Ladakh in the Karakoram Range. “Most of the Siachen Glacier is disputed between India and Pakistan. ‘Before 1984, neither of the two countries had any permanent presence on the glacier. ‘Under the Shimla Agreement of 1972, the Siachen was called a barren and useless. ‘This Agreement also did not specify the boundary between India and Pakistan. “When India got intelligence that Pakistan was going occupy Siachen Glacier, it launched Operation Meghdoot to reach the glacier first. “Following the success of Operation Meghdoot, the Indian Army obtained the area at a higher altitude and Pakistan army getting a much lower altitude. ‘Thus, India has a strategic advantage in this region. “Following the 2003 armistice treaty between the two countries, firing and bombardment have ceased in this area, though both the sides have stationed their armies in the region. What are the territorial disputes between India and Pakistan? Sir Creek Dispute: “Sir Creek is a 96 km estuary in the Rann of Kutch. “Rann of Kutch lies between Gujarat (India) and Sindh (Pakistan). “The dispute lies in the interpretation of the maritime boundary line between the two countries. “Pakistan claims the entire Sir Creek in accordance with @ 1914 agreement that was signed between the Government of Sindh and Rulers of Kutch. “India, on the other hand, claims that the boundary lies mid-channel as per a 1925 map. “If one country agrees to the other's position, the former will lose a vast amount of Exclusive Economic Zone that is rich with gas and mineral deposits. Water disputes: “The waters of the Indus Rivers begin mainly in Tibet and the Himalayan Mountains in the states of Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir (indian side). “They flow through the states of Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Sindh etc., before draining into the Arabian Sea through the Pakistani side. “The partiti were in India. “Both sides were at odds over how to manage and share these rivers “Until the signing of the Indus Waters Treaty in 1960, the arrangement to share east and west-flowing rivers were ad hoc. ‘The Indus Waters Treaty is the water distribution treaty signed between India and Pakistan, brokered by World Bank (then the international Bank for Reconstruction and Development). “According to the treaty, three rivers, Ravi, Sutlej and Beas were given to India for exclusive use and the other three rivers, Sindh, Jhelum and Chenab were given to Pakistan. ‘This treaty failed to address the dispute since source rivers of Indus Basin were in India, having the potential to create drought and famines in Pakistan. Last year, Modi Government had stated that India would no longer allow its share of river waters to flow into Pakistan in response to the Pulwama terror attack. ‘According to the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty, India can exploit rivers under its control without disturbing the flow or quantum. india plans to divert its three rivers to the Yamuna, n led to conflict over waters of the Indus basin as it was i such a way that the source rivers of the Indus Basin Indus river system CHINA Area ceded by Pakistan to China, claimed by India Area held by China, Administered | claimed by India by Pakistan | AFGHANISTAN adore | Line of control fh bak oe Kabul @ @ Abbottabad — £ = Jammu and Kashmir Shabgadar a ey = oe by India ~~ Islamabad Virtual tine Jhelum | in Indus treaty PAKISTAN Chenab 1) as Cross-Border terrorism and ceasefire violations: “Cross-border terrorism has been an issue since independence. ‘Despite the 2003 Ceasefire Agreement post-Kargil Conflict, there have been regular ceasefire violations from the Pakistan side of the border since 2009, leading to the death and injury of security forces and civilians on both sides. “The Modi Government's massive armed retaliation to Pakistan’s ceasefire violations led to a rise in the number of infiltrations of terrorists from across the LoC. “Subsequent incidents of 2016 Pathankot attack and Uri attack resulted in the ceasing of any effort to undertake bilateral talks between the two countries, with Indian Prime Minister declaring that “talks and terrorism cannot go hand in hand”. This was followed by surgical strikes by Indian Army across the LoC to target the terror infrastructure in Po. ‘India’s current stand is that it will not undertake talks until Pakistan tackle cross- border terrorism. “Pakistan, in contrast, is ready for talks but with the inclusion of Kashmir issue.
