In the wake of the India-Pakistan ceasefire, Pakistanis expressed joy, feeling it signified a military success. This victory, however, prompted opposition leaders to question the military's willingness to negotiate with political rivals, especially following the controversial arrest of former prime minister Imran Khan. Celebrations have surged for the military, whose leaders have been bolstered by nationalistic sentiment. Despite this, the tension remains as Khan's party is marginalized, raising doubts about whether the military can maintain this momentum toward unity, reflecting deeper issues in the political landscape of Pakistan.
