Venezuela Bombed, Democracy Crushed, and the Nobel Peace Prize Mute

However, as usual, our foreign affairs columnist Amandeep Midha offers a contrarian view. Read the full article to judge Midha's provocative viewpoint for yourself.

Beyond Optics: Indo-Russia Ties

President Vladimir Putin’s recent visit to India has naturally stirred debate on the balance of gains between Moscow and New Delhi. In this article, KG Sharma examines various aspects of the visit and concludes that India got a boost in defence and energy sectors whereas Russia earned legitimacy and showcased defiance of Western sanctions.

The Fall of Pokrovsk: The Inconvenient Truths of Geopolitics

The recent fall of Pokrovsk in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war has received limited attention on this side of the world, but it has not escaped the eyes of our strategic affairs columnist Amandeep Midha. Once again, he critiques the West for its double standards and cautions that we cannot ignore the emerging reality as 'the theatre has simply acquired new ringmasters, and the old ones are struggling to accept their diminished role.'

When Empires Kneel, Civilisations Endure

Amandeep Midha has become one of RaagDelhi’s most incisive voices on global affairs, combining the precision of a technologist with the perspective of a long-term expatriate. His ability to link headline events with underlying civilizational currents makes his essays far more engaging than what is usually found in foreign affairs writing. This new article advances the inquiry into what India must do in an era when old empires bow to necessity. We hope readers will find it thought-provoking and insightful.

India’s Quiet Handshake with the Taliban

Amandeep Midha is clearly in fine form. With the Afghan Foreign Minister still in India, he has already sent in an article for publication on India’s pragmatic engagement with the Taliban-ruled nation. This is unusually swift for our web magazine, but we are doing our best to keep pace with his speed. The piece is as timely as it is thought-provoking — a dispatch that arrives before the dust has even settled.

In the Dark of the Theatre, Palestine Flickers

Hollywood has long harbored an open secret: it has been quietly telling the story of Palestine for decades. From Avatar to Star Wars, some of our most beloved blockbusters draw direct inspiration from the struggles of occupation and resistance. Yet, they rarely utter the word “Palestine”—a subject that still unsettles the powerful. In this article, the author, himself an immigrant, unpacks how the silver screen has been revealing the truth, one allegory at a time.

We are trying to create a platform where our readers will find a place to have their say on the subjects ranging from socio-political to culture and society. We do have our own views on politics and society but we expect friends from all shades-from moderate left to moderate right-to join the conversation. However, our only expectation would be that our contributors should have an abiding faith in the Constitution and in its basic tenets like freedom of speech, secularism and equality. We hope that this platform will continue to evolve and will help us understand the challenges of our fast changing times better and our role in these times.
