| Bending Without Breaking: The Myth of Gen Z 'Regime Change’ | | Straight Talk | |
K B Jandial
At times, an authoritarian family head bends to resolve discord and protect unity and harmony. While the family views this compromise as wise, neighbours might see it as a weakening of parental authority and the beginning of family division. Regardless of perceptions, the immediate crisis is averted. A nation is no different—a larger family where state authority occasionally bends before friction escalates out of hand. This is what has happened in India recently.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi yielded to the little-known Cockroach Janta Party (CJP). Led by one, Abhijeet Dipke, a former AAP communication strategist, the Gen Z movement emerged from nowhere. Despite its ... |

| | SCO Summit: PM Modi's Central Asian Chessboard | | |
Asad Mirza
Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrives in Bishkek for the 26th SCO summit carrying momentum from Tashkent today, where India and Uzbekistan sealed a uranium deal and a strategic upgrade. Between countering terrorism, courting Central Asia's resources and outflanking China, the summit will test how far India's Eurasian ambitions can travel.
The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) was founded in 2001, evolving out of the "Shanghai Five" security dialogue among China, Russia and three Central Asian states formed after the Soviet collapse. The SCO gives India a rare platform to engage Russia and China simultaneously while pressing its own agenda on terrorism, connecti... |

| | Managed Pluralism: Tokayev’s Constitutional Gamble in Kazakhstan | | |
Asad Mirza
Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev’s ongoing political reset in Kazakhstan, represents a calculated effort, to restructure state power under the narrative of progressive constitutional reform.
Following sweeping amendments to the country's constitutional framework, the establishment of a new unicameral legislature - the Kurultai - marks a defining moment in Central Asian politics. While framed by the administration as a modernisation step to streamline governance and enhance representation, the restructuring reinforces the central authority of the presidency.
At the heart of this strategy is the concept of "managed pluralism." By dismantling former power netw... |

By Afreen Jan
There is a simple truth that we often forget: a society cannot move forward if half of its population is held back. Women are not merely members of families; they are students, teachers, doctors, farmers, entrepreneurs, artists, administrators, scientists, leaders, caregivers, and countless other things. They contribute to society in ways that are sometimes visible and sometimes unnoticed.

| | Hormuz in the Balance: Trump's Territorial Bravado | | Iran's Defiance and a Chokepoint Still Closed | |
Asad Mirza
Trump declared the Strait of Hormuz "New US Territory" via an AI-generated map, insisting it's open and mine-free. Iran mocked the claim, comparing it to annexing California, and vowed the strait stays shut until Washington lifts its blockade and sanctions. Behind the bravado: a 33% approval rating and a global oil market on edge.
Nearly six months into the US-Israel war on Iran, the Strait of Hormuz has become less a shipping lane than a rhetorical battlefield. This week that theatre reached a new pitch: Donald Trump posted an AI-generated map on Truth Social labelling the waterway "NEW US Territory," insisting the strait is "open and operating" and that "all water m... |

| | Three Flags, One Shield: Inside the Makkah Pact, Reshaping the Middle East | | |
Asad Mirza
On August 7, Saudi Arabia, Türkiye and Pakistan signed the Makkah Joint Defence Agreement, an "Islamic NATO"-style mutual-defence pact, in Islam's holiest city rather than any capital. Born from doubts about US protection after Iranian strikes went unanswered, and Yemen's collapsing truce, the deal reshapes regional alignments - unsettling Iran, unnerving Israel, and drawing wary attention from India amid a related disinformation flare-up.
On August 7, in the holy city of Makkah, three men who lead very different countries stood together and signed a document that many in the region had been quietly expecting, and dreading, for months.
