Three South Asian Countries Face Credibility Question in 2024 Polls B'desh, Pakistan and India are going to elect their new governments early next year. This is a strange coincidence as the three nations were together in undivided India before Aug 1947, and share the same heritage. All the three of them are democracies in their own right. And face credibility gap.

"Haven" for Sikh Separatists - India concerns The recent diplomatic spat between India and Canada may appear to be regarding a lone killing. It is not. It is indeed much deeper and revolves round the West's tendency to look at the world through a narrow prism while ignoring the reality that respect for territorial integrity is the basis of global discourse today

Chinese Cartographic Aggression China's new standard map is yet another manifestation of its cartographic aggression on its neighbors from Nepal and India to Philippines. Clearly China behaves as though it cares nothing about what the rest of the world thinks about its expansionist policies. As domestic troubles mount, President Xi may be tempted to return to the old school of patriotism. Taiwan is already on notice!

Islamists in Pakistan play by Taliban copybook of barbarism Tehreek-i-Labbaik Pakistan, (TLP), is a far-right Islamic political party that has been in the headlines of Pakistan. While condemning its barbarism, Prime Minister Imran Khan is keen on an alliance with TLP for the local bodies elections. And the USP of TLP as also other Islamist outfits is their proximity to the Army, which is the real master of the land of the pure, as Pakistanis describe their country.

Dragon's La'ffaire Image Nirvana President Xi Jingping is seeking course correction for his image since neither wallet diplomacy nor wolf warrior diplomacy paid dividends. The allegations that Covid-19 emerged out of a Chinese lab have dented his image. Mere sales pitch for a positive image will end as a media disaster unless Beijing begins to cultivate its neighbors and learns to respect the global order, says the author

Misplaced Optimism in Biden's 9/11 Plan for Afghanistan President Joe Biden appears to be in a hurry to recall American troops from Afghanistan. The Taliban is still in no mood to share power in Kabul. Nor it is ready to give up its role as Pakistan proxy. All this makes Biden's withdrawal plan a risky venture.

Imran Khan's Nuclear Rhetoric Going behind the headline, the article examines why Pakistan is harping on the threat of nuclear war with India and why Pakistan's nuclear programme with its no first use doctrine and full spectrum deterrence is truly terrifying.

Pakistan Faces Global Backlash Against Money-Laundering and Terrorist Financing Pakistan economy is not in the pink of health, says the year-end IMF assessment. It must act transparently to achieve the FATF goals of regulating religious seminaries and checking terror funding. Otherwise, Pakistan runs the risk of a blacklisting and faces a freeze on capital inflows.

The 'Other' Kashmir The book gives an account of two disputed Kashmir pockets under Pakistan rule, about which there is very little in public domain. Detailing steps taken to 'stifle nationalist sentiments', it highlights the struggles of pressure groups, and Pakistan's dilemma in coming to grips with the dynamics at work. The style is clinical as facts and analysis is presented on a wide variety of political and economic issues.

The Hidden Trump Card -- India Tilt? Why should any country oppose President Trump's tagline-- America First. The US may be the original champion of globalisation but the incumbent of the White House must worry about his domestic turf. And in the end what it is all about? Jobs stupid.

Why is UN pussyfooting over a terrorist? Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) is not an unknown terrorist group. Nor is its supremo Maulana Masood Azhar who had his baptism in Taliban and worked with terror groups like al Qaeda, Harkat-ul Ansar (HuA), and Harkat-ul Mujahideen (HuM). Yet the UN is sanctioning Azhar. The question is why.

How to counter China -- Pakistan -- North Korea nuclear triad There is need to think of ways of breaking the China-Pak -- North Korea nuclear nexus by offering Beijing something in return for a visible move away from Islamabad. India should try this though it is not an easy task, and is indeed an uphill task. In the alternative India should seek out a triangular relationship with Japan and South Korea to counter the C-P-N nuclear triad.

Dragon On Fire Disappointment awaits India and any of China's neighbours, if they believe that a cautious approach suits their interests, and sound almost apologetic in criticising the Dragon. These nations will do well to realise that whenever it decides to berate them, China does so with vehemence, often lacing oblique warnings with lessons about the inequality between China and its Asian neighbours.
