Abstract

Introduction: Technology, especially media, has shaped modern culture. Media outlets have unprecedented influence on public opinion thanks to social media. Promoting powerful and unbiased military strategy requires effective media use. Media has long shaped war narratives. Modern social media platforms stir politics, expose injustices, and exploit social differences.


Methodology: This study examines how social media manipulated public opinion during the Indo-Pak war. Qualitative literature review analysis and case studies and policy approaches are used to evaluate how social media affects India-Pakistan relations.

Results/Findings: The analysis informs legislatures and military strategists of successful responses and policies. The findings show that smart social media use can manage public opinion and impact India-Pakistan diplomatic and military outcomes

Future Direction: Future Research improves strategic communication to help stakeholders manage media dynamics during India-Pakistan tensions. Social media can promote regional stability and security in modern conflicts, providing policy and strategy insights.
