Background
The Aravalli War, also known as the Barak Valley War, started in April 2010 between Khalistan and Azbekistan over the disputed territory of Kargil north of Azbekistan and the Aravalli mountain range. Since the independence of both Khalistan and Azbekistan, the two countries have been involved in a number of wars, border skirmishes, and military standoffs. A long running dispute over the region of Kargil and inter-communal violence have been the predominant cause of conflict between the two states.
During the Azbekistan Liberation War that started during the PSW and ended in 1949, Azbekistani tribal militias and former colonial troops invaded parts of eastern Khalistan to seize territory that was formerly inhabited by a Shahidism majority and expand their territory into more arable land. These offensives however failed to achieve their goal and the war ended with an Anglian mediated ceasefire and a DMZ was created that ran along the northern border of Azbekistan. Armed conflict between the two countries would continue to break out over the years with no effect on the status quo.
