The end of colonial rule and rising conflicts saw India and Pakistan emerge as independent nations, but unresolved territorial disputes ignited tensions. The partition of India and Kashmir’s fate left the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir in limbo, leading to internal uprisings and cross-border interventions. As unrest grew, the Muslim rebellions and the Pathan invasion saw Pakistani-backed tribal militias advancing towards Srinagar, threatening the state's security. In response, the war begins: Pakistan’s advance on Srinagar, forcing the Maharaja to accede to India, prompting a military airlift to defend the region. This led to India strikes back: airlifts and counteroffensives, where Indian forces stabilized the front and launched counterattacks, reversing early losses. Finally, a ceasefire and the unresolved Kashmir conflict ended hostilities but left Kashmir divided, setting the stage for decades of tension. This video explores the First Kashmir War and its lasting impact on South Asia.
