The hypothetical conflict between India and Pakistan in 2025—while deeply concerning—serves as a stark reminder of the fragile peace that exists between two nuclear-armed neighbors in South Asia. A war between these nations, whether limited or full-scale, would carry significant consequences not only for the region but also for global stability. This article explores the potential effects of such a war across multiple dimensions: political, economic, humanitarian, environmental, and international relations.
1. Humanitarian Impact
Any armed conflict between India and Pakistan would result in immense human suffering. Both nations have large populations and dense border regions, especially in areas like Kashmir. Civilian casualties would likely number in the tens of thousands in the early days of conflict, with the potential for millions displaced depending on the duration and scale of the war.
