अस्थायी अनुच्छेद 370 और ज़बरन लाए गए अनुच्छेद 35ए का ख़ात्मा
जो लोग अटकलें लगा रहे थे कि मोदी सरकार अनुच्छेद 370 और अनुच्छेद 35A पर मुश्किल भरा फैसला कर पाएगी या नहीं, उन्हें 5 अगस्त को जवाब मिल गया। सरकार ने न केवल दोनों प्रावधानों, जिनमें पहला अस्थायी था और दूसरा पिछले रास्ते से चुपचाप आया था, को खत्म किया बल्कि उसने दो कदम और आगे बढ़ा दिए। उसने जम्मू-कश्मीर के दो टुकड़े कर दिए और दो अलग केंद्रशासित प्रदेश बना दिए। इस तरह जम्मू-कश्मीर अब विधानसभा वाला केंद्रशासित प्रदेश होगा और लद्दाख बिना विधानसभा का कंेद्रशासित प्रदेश होगा। चूंकि दोनों प्रावधान केवल जम्मू-कश्मीर से जुड़े थे, इसलिए राज्य की दो बड़ी क्षेत्रीय पार्टियों नेशनल कॉन्फ्रेंस और पीपुल्स डेमोक्रे

The Middle East continued to worry the world especially in the wake of drone attacks on the two Saudi oil facilities that reduced the Saudi oil output by almost half.

The Chennai Connect in Sino Indian Relations: Assessing the Second India-China informal Summit at Mamallapuram, 11-12 October 2019
The optics of the second Sino-Indian informal summit held at the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) World Heritage site Mamallapuram in Tamil Nadu was great. Chinese President Xi was given a warm welcome by Prime Minister Modi and taken on a tour of the stunning rock cut 7th century shore temples of Mamallapuram, depicting the scenes from the Mahabharat. Modi also presented President Xi a Kanjeevaram silk cloth bearing Xi’s portrait. President Xi said that he was ‘overwhelmed’ by the warmth and hospitality of the host.

Will DaMo help NaMo and Xi at Mahabalipuram?
It is strategic civilisational diplomacy at its symbolic best. Narendra Modi found that his second informal summit with Xi Jinping at Mahabalipuram in 2019 had been fixed 1,500 years ago by a prince of the Pallava dynasty, which ruled Mahabalipuram from Kanchipuram.
The Pallava prince from Kanchipuram renounced the throne, became a Buddhist monk, known as Bodhi Dharma in India and DaMo in China, almost like how prince Siddhartha became Buddha. His guru asked him to go to Zhen Dan- today’s China.

Indic Statecraft and Indo-Pacific
India’s cartographic delimitation of Indo-Pacific broadly encompasses sea space from the western Pacific Ocean through Southeast Asia to the western Indian Ocean along the east coast of Africa. In this sea space it pursues an ‘eclectic blend’ of ‘constructivism’ and ‘realism’1 and showcases how a civilisational power with a long history of socio-cultural engagement and trade, premises its contemporary diplomacy and economic engagements.

पाकिस्तान: आतंकवादी हिंसा की पुनरावृत्ति
आतंकवादी और अलगाववादी धीरे-धीरे एक बार फिर पाकिस्तान में सिर उठा रहे हैं। जर्ब-ए-अज्ब और रद्द-उल-फसद जैसे अनेक अभियानों के बाद सेना ने दावा किया था कि स्थिति नियंत्रण में आ चुकी है। लेकिन हाल की घटनाएं बताती हैं कि ऐसा मानना अभी जल्दबाजी होगी। पंजाब को अभी हिंसा से छुटकारा नहीं मिला है और खैबर पख्तूनख्वा तथा बलूचिस्तान को हमलों की तपिश झेलनी पड़ रही है। आंकड़े खुद ही गवाही देते हैं।
