The South Asia region, home to more than a quarter of humanity, remains a critical geopolitical region. 75 years post partition, India and Pakistan remain at odds on many issues. The two countries share linguistic, cultural, geographical and economic links, but due to political and historical reasons, their relations remain complex. Over the past several decades, the tensions and rivalry between the two nuclear powers have mounted, amidst the influence and power plays between the United States, Russia and China.
