The Real Problem Between India and Pakistan Explained: The Kashmir Conflict

Why is Kashmir still a conflict hotspot between India and Pakistan? 🌏
After 1947’s Partition, the Hindu ruler of Muslim-majority Kashmir chose to join India when Pakistan-backed militias invaded. Since then, Kashmir has been divided between India, Pakistan, and even China.
For India, it’s about territorial integrity. For Pakistan, it’s a key part of Islamic identity. Strategic location, rivers, and national pride make compromise nearly impossible. Decades of wars, insurgencies, and mistrust keep the conflict alive.
