| President’s convocation address in Srinagar | | |
K N Pandita
The addresses of a Head of the State at formal functions are usually non-political and non-controversial. The University of Kashmir had the privilege of listening to the President of India on the occasion of its Convocation last week. As a formal address in the strict sense of the term, it was superb.
But addressing a galaxy of academics and intellectuals in a sensitive place like Srinagar and even guardedly referring to tricky historical situations or ideas asks for exceptional circumspection. Kashmir Valley’s history is wrapped in a plethora of intricacies and controversies made worse by subjective historiography. Aberrations happen unwittingly. VVIPs generally ... |

Jordanian King Abdullah became the first Arab leader to meet the US President Joe Biden at the White House on July 19. By granting him this honour the new US administration is putting its weight behind Jordan to become the voice of the region and non-gulf Arab nations, once again.
As the Jordanian monarch for the last 22 years King Abdullah has been seen by American presidents as a moderate, reliable ally in the Middle East, besides being the eyes and ears from the Arab world in Washington.

A recent survey throws contradictory and unbelievable findings, yet it also underlines how an Indian really feels.
For most political parties, sociologists and psephologists what a common Indian on the street thinks matters most. It is an insight into a common man’s psyche, which allows them to strategies and formulate new plans and narratives. Though the political parties are able to set the narrative for their own narrow agendas yet they are unable to control the common perceptions and thinking among the populace.
Studies like a recent one by the US-based Pew Research Centre’s Survey of Religion across India, helps not just the narrative formulat... |

The earlier constituencies were based on 40 years old population data (1981 census) and obviously its relevance is questionable today. The administrative units have undergone ... |

The recent advances by Taliban in Afghanistan compel us to impartially analyses their psyche and reasons for their success and continued survival.
The US President Joe Biden in a speech on Thursday 8 July announced that the U.S. military would complete its withdrawal from Afghanistan by August 31, nearly two weeks before his earlier deadline of September 11, announced in April.
