Terrible media engagement by Pakistan. This happens when civilian government and institutions are not allowed to grow and take charge of the national narrative. You end up with buffoons waffling and struggling to make sense, unable to respond to even basic questions on the global

Feel sorry for Indians who watch indian tv channels and consume the hyper sensationalisation of events on a daily basis. This is maddening and unbearable for a normal human being.

While a US-mediated dialogue can't be ruled out, it won't come before Pakistan retaliates deep inside India, I am afraid. Modi needs the current momentum, which is in his favour before the domestic audience, and a strike by Pakistan threatens his recently earned 'big man' aura at

While I’m looking forward to the detailed defence and strategic scoops from non-partisan journalists in the coming days, FJ and Zayyan have mostly been on the mark. Kudos to their work.

India’s reset can begin only when Ajit Doval and S. Jaishankar are removed from decision-making. Both sycophants, masquerading as advisors, have failed to deliver for the country, one by lecturing the West about India’s supposed invincibility and geopolitical importance, and the

For Pakistan, the Army must recognise the shortcomings of Pakistan's narrative and return strategic decision making to civilian control, allowing other institutions to evolve with a focus on economic security. Civilian supremacy is the harbinger of growth, internal and external

If you want to know how the ANA vanished, read the analysis of the situation by the former Afghan VP & NDS chief. No wonder the Taliban routed them in a matter of days.

Shashi Tharoor’s fall from grace was both epic and surprising, as I had regarded him as one of the few intellectually consistent figures of South Asia. He has now contradicted his own assessment of India’s drift toward a majoritarian Hindutva identity, an ideology that has

Here is what I took from President Trump’s brief remarks on the Indo-Pak standoff: He struck a very measured tone, which signals many things: 1) Pakistan is not as irrelevant in Washington as many so called experts/analyst have claimed in the past many years. 2) he aimed for

It’s obvious that Modi will continue to do the tough talking publicly for his audiences at home. He has elections to look after. But he knows, and so does the international community, that Pakistan has indeed fought back, successfully challenging the Indian dream of invisibility

Remember annoying Trump is more detrimental to India than it is to Pakistan, especially after Trump seems to have found a middle ground with China on the issue of tariffs. India has to tread carefully.

What a Donald J. Trump facilitated talk might look like between Pakistan and India? While there are plenty of irritants, the biggest is the proxy war. Going forward, Pak can dial back both the rhetoric and the tangible support surrounding the Kashmir dispute. In exchange,
