The china-Pakistan economic corridor (CPEC) project is a paramount investment by China under the framework of one belt, one road. CPEC invigorate the relationship between china and Pakistan by considering the new veracities of national and international politics with laying the foundation of highly systematic, advance and imperative interaction for promoting the development socially, economically, industrially, politically and strategically. The geo-economics dimension of CPEC is a rational step in crafting the way towards Kashmir conflict due to its geographically close proximity. Simultaneously, the CPEC route traverses Indian occupied Kashmir which is a bone of contention between two neighboring countries Pakistan and India since its inception. This constellation exhibits a new horizon, whereas CPEC could exert extra strain on bilateral relations of India and Pakistan. Contrary to this, the constructive role of CPEC is comprehendible by resulting a tranquil settlement of Kashmir conflict. This paper will examine the underlying debate on CPEC and the impact of enhanced cooperation between China and Pakistan on resolving Kashmir dispute. This paper is an attempt to answer the question if the success of CPEC could be functional in instigating the dialogue process for the resolution of 70 years old Kashmir dispute and historical analysis of China’s policies toward Kashmir.. In the perspective of political economy, this gigantic project could have a negative impact if there is no peace and harmony in the region however, it can be more fruitful in accomplishing the desire objectives if it is dealt smartly.
