India and Pakistan are two Asian neighbours known the world over for their hostile relations and armed conflicts. Carved from India, Pakistan is a nascent country having over only a half century’s existence. As Pakistan’s birth is the result of two-nation theory of British Colonialists, ‘hate-India’ is a deep-rooted spirit of Pakistani psyche. Kashmir tangle, proxy war, inflicting terrorism etc. are the main issues, influencing Indo-Pak relations. Eleven essays are included in this book which highlight the major issues, namely: Evolution of Pakistan’s Foreign Policy and its Relations with India; Indo-Pakistan Relations; Indo-Pak Bilateral Cooperation; Pakistan’s Stand on Kashmir; Kashmir: The Unresolved Problem; Kargil War and Aftermath; Operation “Vijayâ€; Quest for Cooperation in conflict; Islamic Fundamentalism and Indo-Pak Relations; and Issue of Military Balance; etc.
