India-China Relations: A Constructive Reset with Strategic Promise

Team DSA July 15, 2025 No Comments

External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar’s 2025 visit to China marks a cautious revival of dialogue after years of tension following the 2020 Galwan clash. While both nations are adopting a softer diplomatic tone and reactivating bilateral mechanisms, deep-rooted mistrust—especially over the unresolved border and geopolitical rivalries—persists. True normalization will require sustained efforts in trust-building, strategic maturity, and de-escalation on both sides.

Unmanned systems, precision missiles, and cyber warfare are reshaping the battlefield, making adaptability the key to survival.

Israel–Palestine Conflict Deepens After Abraham Pact

Team DSA July 12, 2025 No Comments

The article critiques the Abraham Accords as a superficial peace effort that excluded the core issue of Palestinian rights and grievances. While the U.S. projected itself as a mediator, the accord primarily served strategic and electoral interests, sidelining lasting peace. Hamas’s rejection and Israel’s continued exclusionary policies further fractured hope for resolution. Ultimately, peace remains elusive amidst entrenched hostility and political opportunism.

Operation Sindoor: India Strikes, Stays Measured

Team DSA July 10, 2025 No Comments

Operation Sindoor marks a decisive shift in India’s counterterror doctrine, showcasing its readiness to strike deep inside Pakistan in response to terror attacks. The operation exposed Pakistan’s military vulnerabilities and eroded its nuclear deterrence bluff, while reaffirming India’s technological and strategic superiority. India now faces the imperative of preparing for future multi-domain and collusive threats, especially from a China-Pakistan axis. Despite the escalatory posture, India remains committed to peace—if Pakistan ends its support for terrorism.

Team DSA March 24, 2025 No Comments

The Khalistani separatist movement is one of the most contentious issues in modern Indian history. Rooted in the demand for an independent Sikh state called Khalistan, the movement primarily arose from Punjab’s socio-political dynamics. While its roots trace back to the mid-20th century, its implications are still evident today, both domestically and internationally.
