| Kashmir at the crossroad of past and future | | |
Prof. Tabasum Firdous
Kashmir is a historic entity. Its ancient history, glory and civilizational fund can be gleaned from the pages of histories written by eminent Kashmiri historians like Kalhana, Jonaraja, Suka and others. The rulers of ancient Kashmiri architectural specimens are still there to speak of their grandeur. Be it Martand or Avantipora ruins, Wangat or Parihasapora remains or the excavations at Tapar and Boniyar, Kashmiri temple and iconographic architecture had its own style and pre-eminence. In the British Museum Kashmir section on archaeological remains and artifacts stands out prominently.
Ancient Kashmiri’s achievements were not one-sided. In philosophy... |

| | Indian and Afghan Unity for Balochistan | | |
By Fatima Baloch
Pakistan has launched a full-fledged war against its western neighbor, Afghanistan. While temporary ceasefires may occur under pressure from Saudi Arabia and Qatar, this conflict is likely to persist until Pakistan collapses. Historically, Afghanistan has resisted foreign domination. In 1979, the USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) intervened militarily, toppling President Mohammad Daud Khan and installing a communist regime under Babrak Karmal. In response, Afghan mujahideen—backed by the United States, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and other Arab states—waged a decade-long proxy war that led to the Soviet withdrawal in 1989.
After the Soviet retreat, Paki... |

By Fatima Baloch
Pakistani “regional experts” and self-styled analysts are no strangers to deception. Many have engaged in propaganda that misleads the public and contributes to failures in diplomacy and warfare. In particular, Pakistan’s Afghan policy suffers from poor leadership, flawed strategic thinking, and a lack of credibility on international platforms. Three persistent narratives have recently gained traction:
1. Pakistan is pressuring the Afghan Taliban—via China, Turkey, Qatar, and others—to take action against the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA).
2. The Supreme Leader of the Afghan Taliban has issued a fatwa declaring jihad again... |

Many among them are engaged in propaganda that misleads people and contributes to failure in diplomacy of war or peace.

In his latest demand, Trump said on Thursday (September 18) that his administration is pressing to “get back” the military base at Bagram, Afghanistan. The US presid... |

| | Pakistan's Objectives in Afghanistan | | |
By K N Pandita and Fatima Baloch
The creation of Pakistan in 1947 was deeply influenced by the British colonial strategy of "divide and rule." Rather than emerging from a purely organic nationalist movement, Pakistan was born out of the partition of British India under the pretext of religion—specifically, the "Two-Nation Theory." This division not only fractured the Indian subcontinent but also weakened Muslim political cohesion. The geopolitical repercussions of Pakistan's formation extended beyond its borders, profoundly affecting neighbouring Afghanistan.
The foundation of the Two-Nation Theory was later discredited when Pakistan disintegrated in 1971 and Bangladesh emer... |

The recent SCO Summit in Tianjin has provided India a timely opportunity to reset its ties with China and also prodded Russia to revive the old Russia, India, and China (RIC) forum. RIC may emerge as a potential defence against the US’s tariff mania by increasing trilateral cooperation and trade.
