| The '''Punjab War''' was a military confrontation that formed the third and final conflict of the [[Punjab-Indiae conflict|land dispute between Indiae and the Kingdom of the Punjab]]. Lasting approximately four years, the war ended in the [[Treaty of Pennchaung]], which resulted in the abdication of the last Punjabi {{wpl|maharajah}} [[Bikramjit Singh]] and the subsequent incorporation of most of the Kingdom by Indiae, with the Aksai Chin region of Kashmir ceded to Lorica.
| |
| | |
| The [[Second Punjab-Indiae War]] ended in 1980 with the Indiaen acquisition of the eastern half of Karachi Province and the Eastern Ladakh from Punjab. The annexed province became another source of conflict with East Karachi extending 10 miles beyond the Indus, witnessing acts of terrorism by Sikh militant organizations from 1982 to 1995. Although the Punjabi government has officially condemned the attacks, their measures did little to suppress their activities. Relations would continue to sour during and after the [[Shafat Glacier War]], where a Punjabi victory in 1993 incited violent demonstrations in East Karachi. Suspicions were heightened between the two nations, and would not simmer thereafter. Troop buildups would ensue at East Karachi and Kashmir which exacerbated tensions. Moreover, the newly elected Indiaen president [[Jamadagni Kayal]] of the Coalition for a Peaceful Indiae propagated rumors of militant Sikh proxies commanded by the Punjabi government intending to deliberately throw Indiae to disorder to regain their lost lands, even though they were intrisically baseless; furthermore, his talks with [[Devendra Singh]] lead to dead ends. In 1994, tensions worsened with a confrontation between Punjabi and Indiaen troops in the Shafat and Siachen Glaciers, and culminated in a car bombing near the Indiaen Parliament complex in 1994. Kayal regarded these acts as confirmations to his suspicions, and declared war on 15 April 1995.
| |
| | |
| Two days later, the Indiaen military launched [[Operation Chandragupta]]. The [[Association of Asianna Nations]], since 1982, observed with rising concern, and a general council was convened at the behest of the heads of state of [[Quenmin]], [[Joyonghea]], [[Bethausia]], and the [[Holy Trabian Empire]] four hours before the operation took place. Devendra Singh made an appeal for the Association to send military assistance as soon as possible, and with a unanimous decision, the assembly voted to send troops to assist Punjab, declaring war against Indiae the day after. The Association sent in over 50,000 troops to split the Indiaen Army's attention. However, when news of Operation Chandragupta's success in taking more than half of the country disseminated two months later, the Association approved to raise the troop level to 230,000 troops, and the conflict escalated. Another sign of this escalation was the [[First Subcontinental Airstrike]], which would leave a lasting impression upon Indiae.
| |
| | |
| From July 1995 to December 1997, the Association assisted Punjab in obtaining a rebound, garnering victories that would virtually undo the progress of ''Chadragupta''. In its duration, the [[Bombing of Lahore]] observed the death of Devendra Singh and the ascension of [[Bikramjit Singh]]. However, the situation for the association would turn with the Punjabi defeat at the [[Battle of Narpathur]], leading the country to be split in two, and attempts to undermine Indiae's war effort in the [[Second Subcontinental Airstrike]] were unsuccessful. From January 1998 to May 1999, Punjab and the Association faced setbacks that cost Punjabi land and victories that would be overturned, and their situation would worsen with Lorican entry into Northern Punjab on 31 May 1999. The Lorican intervention would induce fears among the Association about potential Lorican invasions in their countries. A ceasefire would be declared on 4 June 1999, and eventually Punjab declared its surrender and annexation in the [[Treaty of Pennchaung]], which was adhered by Bikramjit.
| |
| | |
| The resolution of the conflict would leave Asianna relieved of a "second [[War of Lorican Aggression]]," but it left consequences that would prove long-term. Relations between the Association and Lorica became tense and lasted until the [[Imperial Crisis]], and Indiae would remain economically tied off with its Southeast Asianna neighbors and align itself with Lorica until 2011. The conflict's result oversaw the [[Federal Union Association]] promoting and overseeing economic welfare policies and cooperation with Indiae and Lorica, which contributed to the Boya family's growing influence in the FUA and proved a factor leading to the outbreak of the [[Federal Union Association Crisis]].

| The "Punjab War" is a named bestowed on the conflict for its original start in the Indiaen incursions into Punjab. The conflict is also recognized internationally by historians as the '''Third Punjab-Indiae War''' and the '''War in the Punjab'''. Given the geographical scale of the conflict, the war is also remembered as the '''Subcontinental War''', though this is disseminated infrequently throughout the world, and is recognized prominently in Indiaen history texts. Among Punjabis, the military altercation is known as the '''Visakh War''' ({{wpl|Punjabi language|Punjabi}}: ਵਿਸਾਖ ਦੀ ਜੰਗ; ''Visākha dī Jaga'') and the '''War of Nanakshahi Paja Sau Chabi''' (ਨਾਨਕਸ਼ਾਹੀ ਪੰਜ ਸੌ ਛੱਬੀ ਦੀ ਜੰਗ; ''Nānakaśāhī Paja Sau Chabī dī Jaga'') or the '''War of Nanakshahi 526''', respective to the month (equivalent to 14 April – 14 May) and year in the {{wpl|Nanakshahi calendar}}; with the Kingdom nation annexed by Indiae, it also become known as the '''Rajapatana''' (ਰਾਜ ਦਾ ਪਤਨ; ''Rāja dā Patana''), which indirectly translates to "Fall of the Kingdom."
