    This research focuses on analyzing the Pakistan-Afghanistan ties during the PTI government. The data is thoroughly sought and collected from reliable sources, including prior research studies and papers. During its tenure in 2018, the PTI Government encountered numerous obstacles and hurdles in its relationship with Afghanistan. The PTI government attempted to enhance bilateral relations through the augmentation of economic cooperation and diplomatic engagement. Among the numerous aims of the Imran Khan government, a key focus was to bolster economic cooperation. This encompassed the enhancement of commercial and economic activities, financial allocation, and interpersonal linkages. In addition, endeavours were undertaken to enhance the trade connectivity between Pakistan and Afghanistan. The PTI government facilitated the Peace Talk Process between Afghanistan and the United States. They also prioritized the resolution of issues through political means. Despite the extensive efforts made, the relationship between Pakistan and Afghanistan has consistently been characterized by complexity, fragility, and friction.
