The Kashmir conflict, a long-standing territorial dispute between India and Pakistan since 1947, has escalated into violence and militarization. Kashmir, claimed by both nations but divided by a heavily fortified line of control, has seen armed resistance from local insurgents who seek either independence or unification with Pakistan. The 2019 revocation of the region's special status by India's government, which allowed non-locals to purchase land, sparked outcry and fears of demographic changes, deepening local grievances and tensions with New Delhi, reflecting broader nationalist agendas.
The dispute over Kashmir, rooted in the 1947 partition, has led to multiple wars and ongoing conflict, fueled by nationalism and demands for autonomy.
In 2019, India's government revoked Kashmir's special status, angering locals who viewed the move as an attack on their autonomy and demographic changes.
