Abstract
The state is challenged not only by its own capabilities, interests, policies and actions but also by
those of the state with which it interacts. Pakistan’s geostrategic location is placed in an
environment where it is facing threats across the border from India who have hegemonic attitude
in South Asia. Security of the region is highly associated with the peace process between the two
nuclear states of the region. For Pakistan it’s a difficult challenge to win the trust of India because
of their unresolved disputes and lack of cooperation between them. India has to make its secular
foundation more strong and solid while Pakistan has to think how it can make its state up to the
principles of Islam and how to enjoy the positive fruits of modernity without losing its religion.
The hostility between Pakistan and India is a main hurdle for peace building.Without creativity
and commitment to dispute resolution, it is difficult to imagine their policy of peaceful
engagements in the future. Future of Pakistan-India relations depends upon the type of
compromise which might be accepted by both sides.By the time, the peace process began
between the two states, they cannot run off from the actuality of it and by viewing the future
prospects of peace process there is up till now in the present scenario, there are rays of lack of
absolute possession, allegiance and visual perception from both states in order to lookout for
peace benefit by employing right set of circumstances for the improvement in their
confrontational relations
