This study investigates the military stability of South Asia, after
overt display of nuclear explosions by Pakistan and India in May
1998. The two countries have been loggerhead on Kashmir dispute
since their inception in 1948. Both have fought three major wars
and are in the process of fighting a limited war in the Himalayan
Mountains for the last seventeen years. The specific emphasis was
on the analyses of the genesis of problem and the roots of mistrust
between the two countries. The present day military scenario and
relationship of both countries have been discussed with special
emphasis on the military government in Pakistan and hard-line
religious government in India. The recent Kargil crisis in 1999,
soon after nuclearization of both countries was also discussed
during the course of study. The study explained the problem areas,
arms race and nuclear thresholds of two countries. It also briefly
touched upon the reasons for nonadherence of nonproliferation
treaties in vogue by the two countries. The study also includes the
overall geopolitical environments of South Asia including the China
factor in the region. The study advocates that the world, in
general, and South Asia, in particular, will remain under the
clouds of nuclear holocaust due to Pakistan and India, unless
Kashmir problem is amicably solved. In this regard the importance
of intervention by world powers especially United States is
extremely important. Both Pakistan and India have failed to resolve
their core issue of Kashmir by bilateral talks so far; thus, third
party intervention is extremely essential. If world powers fail to
do so, it is a matter of time only when both countries will once
again indulge in another full-scale war, which may have a potential
to turn into a nuclear war.
