Pakistan-India: Peace or hostility


This article deals with the continuity of hostility between Pakistan and India and underlines the structural reasons being their rivalry. It also exhibits that peace between them is not a forlorn hope. It can be achieved.
Pakistan and India were born out of conflict in 1947. Both, since then, are at loggerheads. Their hostility has stunted the potential of region to blossom into a hub of peace and prosperity. Three full-scale wars have failed to supply both Islamabad and New Delhi a lesson of peace. Rather two sides are busy in piling up military hardware aimed at each other. A hand extended towards friendship is chopped off by the hand entrenched in chauvinism. Kashmir is a major cause of concern for both states. It is still unresolved. Islamabad says that Kashmir is a part of its territory and it must be liberated from Indian side. However, India asserts that this matter has been settled and there will be no partition on religious lines again.
