India’s judicial system is often described as a sluggish elephant—majestic, powerful, but painfully slow to move. Cases drag on for decades, files gather dust, and ordinary people wait lifetimes for justice that never comes. And yet, like a flash of lightning in the monsoon sky, the Supreme

The United States has made its intentions in Bangladesh increasingly clear. From a C-130J Super Hercules landing in Chittagong to exercises like Tiger Lightning-2025 and Pacific Angel, Washington is building presence in a zone that touches both India and Myanmar. Dhaka, under its interim leadership, is seizing the moment. Saint Martin’s Island — a tiny […]

The Supreme Court of India has once again shown where it stands when it comes to Hindu faith — at the bottom of the courtroom joke book. Chief Justice of India B.R. Gavai, while hearing a plea regarding the restoration of a beheaded idol of Lord Vishnu at Khajuraho’s historic Javari temple, thought it fit […]

The Asia Cup 2025 clash between India and Pakistan ended with more than just runs and wickets. While India registered a convincing victory, the match was overshadowed by symbolic gestures that were meant to signal defiance but left many questioning their real value.

America today is speaking out of both sides of its mouth when it comes to India. On the stage, President Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio shower New Delhi with praise, calling India an indispensable partner in stabilizing Asia, a bulwark against Chinese aggression, and a friend that shares democratic values.

India’s decision to back the UN resolution endorsing the two-state solution for Palestine marked a significant departure from its recent abstentions. In siding with the overwhelming majority at the General Assembly, New Delhi appeared to prioritize its broader global calculus over bilateral sensitivities with Israel. The result was a moment where France gained credibility

India has had a few inflection points that quietly, firmly reset how the world reads New Delhi’s intent. Pokhran II in 1998 was one such moment. A three-decade later echo could arrive if the proposal to build 114 Rafales in India moves from paper to production. This is not only a purchase plan. It is […]

The recent wave of Gen Z protests in Nepal should serve as a sobering warning for India. What began as a movement for accountability and transparency quickly descended into mob violence, arson, and even the killing of politicians’ family members. Houses were torched, public property was destroyed, and the democratic space for dissent was hijacked […]

India received its third GE F404-IN20 engine for the Tejas Mk1A today, a development that once again underscores the country’s dependence on imported powerplants for its frontline fighters. Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) continues to rely on the American-made engine to keep Tejas production moving, and when GE delays its shipments, as it has done in […]
