Editorial Summary

The Indus Waters Treaty, a time-tested agreement crafted in 1960, is now skating on thin ice amid the growing tide of hate politics and aggressive nationalism.

In the thick of rising tensions and hurried ceasefire between India and Pakistan, I found myself tangled in the buzz around media’s role in shaping war narratives

In the wake of the recent India-Pakistan crisis, I find myself compelled to unpack a confrontation that nearly spiraled into all-out war between two nuclear-armed neighbors

I find it deeply ironic how history keeps repeating itself—this time through PM Modi’s Himalayan misstep that has thrown South Asia back into the whirlpool of confrontation. Ignoring Vajpayee’s vision of coexistence

I’m penning this piece with a heavy but hopeful heart. The recent skirmish between India and Pakistan, though bloodied and brutal, has carved open a new political space

As I see it, the recent developments between the US and Saudi Arabia are not just another page in their oil-soaked history but a complete rewrite of the script

Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia didn’t just check diplomatic boxes—it was a game-changer that flipped the script on how both nations will engage moving forward

India’s decision to place the Indus Waters Treaty “in abeyance”—a term with no legal weight in the treaty—has sent ripples across diplomatic and environmental corridors

As I look into the complexities of war and its emotional toll on societies, this piece paints a compelling picture of how humour has become Pakistan’s peculiar yet powerful response to conflict

In this compelling piece, I explore how India has taken international law for a ride by declaring the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) “in abeyance”—a move that not only lacks any legal grounding but also sets a dangerous precedent.
