people fear that war may break out as tensions between india and pakistan increase. Fear is evident on the ground as well as in the air, particularly in indian areas that are near the Pakistani border. In the event of a conflict, these regions are thought to be the most vulnerable.

Why is there a fear of war?
Following an indian military strike on terrorist camps in Pakistan-occupied kashmir (PoK), tensions between india and pakistan recently increased. This increased the likelihood that pakistan would retaliate.
People are now bracing for the worse because of the high levels of stress. In many locations, hospitals are preparing, schools are on notice, and people are purchasing medications and rations. Particularly those along the Indo-Pak border, some states are more concerned than others.
