For nearly two weeks the villages along LoC are witnessing days and nights without the sound of guns and bombs as the DGMOs of the two nations announced reaffirmation of the #India - #Pakistan ceasefire agreement.
It is pertinent to mention that the cease-fire was asked by #Pakistan. Although, the agreement is reported to be a result of week long back-channel discussions, what made Pakistan walk on this road? Here is a quick analysis.
#India’s hardened approach to #Pakistan with cross-border surgical strikes after the #Uri terror attack & upped the ante further with the #BalakotAirStrikes following #Pulwama terror attack has made it clear that no more diplomatic resolves will opt until Pakistan mends its way
This had caused quite a flutter in #Pakistan as it had become used to #India absorbing terror attacks and not retaliating.
Economic Distress in #Pakistan
#FATF grey-listing has put impediments on the flow of international financing & #IMF is only lending under stringent conditions.
Also, from the other directions CPEC is in some financial distress; buffeted by attacks from #Baluch freedom fighters.

Bold move of #India of abrogating article 370 & article 35 A has stamped #Pakistan as the move has been widely accepted around the globe as an internal matter of India. Also, the acceptance of move by locals of #Kashmir after the brief repulsion has hit it with a pinch of salt.
#ImranKhan is under tremendous internal as well as external political pressure. The recent by-elections in the provinces have shown a clear wave of public disgruntlement against his government. The pressure put on by global powers has made the situation worse for him.
On Feb 2, General #Bajwa, #Pakistan's army chief, said 'time to extend a hand of peace in all directions' and the 'need to resolve' the Kashmir issue in 'a dignified and peaceful manner'. This came when his puppet is under extreme political pressure.
Irrespective of the reason behind it, it is good news for India. But, as a saying goes “a leopard cannot change its spots”, which makes it hard to trust #Pakistan in the matter as it has multiple times in past violated ceasefire.
