As the coalition forces prepare to exit Afghanistan, concerns regarding peace and stability
in the country and future power balance after their departure are becoming paramount.
While there will be a considerable American presence, focus has now shifted to local
infrastructure and services - civil, military and political and their ability to further peace and
progress in the country. Owing to the geostrategic landscape of Afghanistan, in addition to
its long conflict ridden history with a significant presence of the Taliban, concerns
regarding revival of conflict and violence are coming to the fore – particularly from
traditional South Asian rivals i.e. India and Pakistan. Through an in-depth study of the
political, economic, cultural and regional dimensions of this tri-lateral relationship, the
following paper examines how there is a significant clash of interests and how there can
cooperation between India and Pakistan in Afghanistan.
