    Intense diplomatic lobbying on new auto policy

    The problem with industry monopoly is that no one can lay stress on them. Think of it this way, your only supply of drinking water is a delivery guy, but he's always late for his deliveries and when he does show up, the water is not quite clear.

    Intellectuals, writers call on Cameron to raise rights issue with Modi

    That's a poor argument. With that logic, Kim Jong-un, with his 101% vote approval rate should be a beacon of a role model for the democratic world. India has a unique opportunity that it has never had before; being welcomed into the West by open arms. We are offering joint-ventures, investment...

    what does the Pak armed forces realiticially need to counter india conventially

    As a response to the OP, a rock solid defence would lead to some assurity for Pakistan to not rely on non-conventional weapons.

    Pakistan’s Increasing Nuclear Stockpile: India the only Threat Factor?

    Gauging from the location of the "research group", anyone can expect this type of rhetoric. And either the Indian members here are trolling for their own amusement by pretending to take Ghoshal seriously, or they are letting their emotions get the better of them. Anyone who knows anything about...

    Pakistan witnessed 41% growth in IT exports

    Tax evasion. Also, I did some freelance work a while ago and there are a number of individuals and companies who are from Pakistan. I am willing to bet not all of them are registered and above the table as anyone with a computer can undertake work from on-line sites from their own homes. This is...

    Her stint in Afghanistan ended as the Western involvement drew down. Initially I found her articles to be balanced and more importantly; based on facts. However, as she found less and less work reporting and analysing in the country, she has turned to more opinionated rhetoric. A far cry from...

    Poll: What is the biggest threat to United States today?

    Its allies growing weary of having to fight wars for the U.S. for reasons that make less and less sense. Eventually, deciding to stay neutral in a future conflict, then realising they have a lot more to gain by not strutting around the world chest-thumping. In short- the U.S. losing its allies...

    India's Strange Preoccupation With Pakistan

    Pakistan-India relations remain fraught. But India should be looking at extremism at home rather than worrying about its neighbor, according to well-known Pakistani columnist Nadeem F. Paracha.

    S-400 Triumf SAM Killer.

    The U.S. recently sold hundreds of AMRAAMs to Pakistan which are very India-specific. However, the induction of S-400 would be a huge boost to India's air defence. It will reduce the pressure of the IAF to focus on other jobs. But, as I have learnt from Pakistan's multiple drone programs, there...
