• What will be the impact on business?

The border between Pakistan and Afghanistan is very important for trade. Major borders like Chaman and Torkham have already been closed several times. If there is a war between the two, all major roads may be closed. Due to this, there may be shortage of food items, fuel and essential goods. Especially in Afghanistan, which is more dependent on imports, inflation may increase rapidly there. Pakistan may also face economic shock due to loss in trade and increase in security expenses.

• What advantage will terrorist organizations take?

Both countries have been accusing each other of giving shelter to terrorists, if there is a war then extremist groups like TTP and BLA can take advantage of the situation and strengthen their hold. It will be difficult to stop them in hilly and remote areas. With increasing instability, fundamentalist organizations may also try to attract new people with them.

• Impact on business and connectivity with India

India has had development projects and humanitarian assistance programs in Afghanistan. If there is a war, the possibilities of regional trade routes, especially connectivity with Central Asia, may be affected. India’s connectivity strategy can also be indirectly affected through Chabahar Port.

Due to hilly terrain, weak supply lines and militant activities, it may be difficult for any side to achieve quick victory. The war may last a long time, resulting in the loss of thousands of soldiers and civilians. This will put a heavy burden on the economy and army of both the countries and may increase internal political instability, protests and public pressure. The Taliban is known for guerrilla warfare and fighting for long periods of time.

• Attack on inner city areas

The use of air strikes, drones and heavy weapons has been seen in the current clashes. If the war escalates, both countries can also attack each other’s internal areas, such as roads, bridges and supply bases. This will result in loss of lives of common people.
