This report examines the 2021 India-Pakistan ceasefire agreement, a significant breakthrough in reducing violence along the Line of Control in Kashmir. Despite previous failures of similar arrangements, the understanding has remarkably endured for over four years, bringing relief to border communities. The report analyzes how both nations interpret the agreement differently—Pakistan viewing it as a step toward broader dialogue and India focusing on reducing border violence—while offering recommendations for strengthening this rare diplomatic success. Its longevity depends on sustained political commitment, continued military restraint, and Pakistan’s efforts to address cross-border terrorism.
