This overview explores the turbulent India-Pakistan relations from the late 20th century, focusing on significant conflicts. Despite the Indo-Pakistani wars in the 1970s, tensions persisted, culminating in the Siachen War of 1984 over territorial disputes in Kashmir, which saw a cease-fire established in 2003. The late 1990s marked the start of nuclear testing by both nations, further straining relations. The Kargil War in 1999 reignited conflicts in the Kashmir region, illustrating ongoing disputes along the Line of Control.
