On 22 April 2025, a terrorist attack in Pahalgam Valley unleashed grief and anger across India. In response, New Delhi abeyed the Indus Waters Treaty, ordered all Pakistani passport holders to return, sealed its land borders, and dispatched delegations worldwide to expose Pakistan’s sponsorship of extremist groups. Islamabad promptly annulled the Simla Agreement, suspended bilateral trade, and circulated a dossier alleging Indian Air Force strikes and “local crime” incidents to shift blame. When Western media cornered Pakistani envoys with the question, “Why have you been sheltering terrorists?”, they fell silent. Analysts say India’s calibrated diplomatic offensive not only presents its case but also underscores that blind imitation can undermine a nation’s core strengths. #pahalgamattack #indiapakistan2025 #terrorisminkashmir #induswaterstreaty #simlaagreement #indiastrikesback #geopolitics2025 #kashmirattack2025 #indiasecurity
