Pakistan on Verge of Collapse

July 17, 2026

When Pakistan was formed in 1947, it was divided into two parts: East Pakistan and West Pakistan. East Pakistan is now known as Bangladesh. In the remaining Pakistan, a region called Balochistan has rebelled. Meanwhile, in Azad Kashmir, also known as Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, a massive public movement has erupted against Pakistani rule. Pakistani Field Marshal Asif Munir is attempting to suppress the people of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir using military force. On July 14, the Pakistani army opened fire on civilians in PoK, killing six civilians. Following this, at least 150,000 people there began a mass march towards Muzaffarabad.

These people are demanding an independent Kashmir that is not part of Pakistan. But an even bigger rebellion has arisen in Balochistan. The Baloch have raised the banner of rebellion in Balochistan for a long time. On July 14th, news emerged that most of the rebels in Balochistan have dealt a severe blow to Pakistan by declaring themselves an independent country. They announced on social media that they have declared Balochistan an independent country under the name Republic of Balochistan. Our army has occupied 85 percent of Balochistan. They have also claimed to have implemented a separate flag, national anthem, new currency, and administrative system. The new government has even claimed complete control over gas fields, coal mines, and other resources. They also say that a large number of people from Pakistan’s security agencies have resigned and decided to support Balochistan. India can be satisfied that the Baloch Liberation Army of Balochistan has eliminated 34 Indian enemies, including top commanders of the Islamic State and Lashkar terrorists.

This attack has also exposed the Pakistani military, as the meeting that followed this attack included commanders from the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT). It should be noted that Azad Kashmir wants to declare itself independent but does not want to merge with India. The same is true for Balochistan, which is in a hurry to break away from Pakistan and declare itself a separate country. Assessing the situation, we find that Asif Munir’s army is currently fighting on three fronts: Azad Kashmir on one side, Balochistan on the other, and Afghanistan on the third.

The protests of the people of Azad Kashmir began with their demand for more seats in the Pakistani Parliament. This demand was not met, and the situation escalated to issues of inflation, corruption, and shortages of daily essential goods. When the people of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir see the progress of Indian Kashmir, they feel anger and resentment towards Pakistan.

This anger has taken the form of rebellion. On the other hand, Pakistan has also waged war with Afghanistan. It’s no secret that Pakistan is currently in dire financial straits. The military has always dominated Pakistani politics. Even now, Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif pales in comparison to Field Marshal Asif Munir. Asif Munir, not the Prime Minister, has the final say in setting policies and implementing decisions. This means that our neighboring country is in a state of disrepair and chaos. In such a situation, Pakistan intensifies terrorist activities in India to divert the attention of its people. Therefore, the Indian government also needs to be extra vigilant.
