China once viewed the Indian Ocean as the “Far Sea” has enhanced its influence in East Asia and expanded its reach as far as Europe. This strategic manoeuvre, coupled with China’s strong presence in the South China Sea has left the Bay of Bengal as a focal point for Washington’s ambitions to assert dominance in the Indo-Pacific region. In contrast, China adopted a “soft power” strategy in East and South Asia with non-interference in domestic affairs and economic and infrastructural developments. Beijing forced New Delhi to devote time and resources to its neighbours rather than extend influence into East Asia. When Barack Obama questions India’s territorial integrity that means Washington is taking an assertive posture toward South Asia.

There is a new term “transnational repression” which is being used commonly by international media. The recent assassination of Canadian Sikh Hardeep Singh Nijjar by the Indian RAW has raised many questions and the Indian role in transnational repression. In 2009, India also carried out operations in Nepal, Bhutan, and Bangladesh to capture wanted Indian militants. The Sikhs are struggling for their identity and a separate homeland comprising areas of Jammu, Haryana, Rajasthan and Indian Punjab. Avtar Singh Khanda who was accused of targeting an Indian mission in the UK was found dead in mysterious circumstances.

Historians have played a pivotal role in shaping the narratives that underpin the rise of nationalism. While historians’ contributions to the development of nationalism can be seen as both constructive and contentious, it is essential to acknowledge their significant impact. Historians contribute to the preservation and promotion of historical events and symbols that reinforce national identity. However, it is crucial to recognise that historians’ influence on nationalism is not without its drawbacks and controversies. German historians of the 19th Century for example gave fillip to nationalism of extreme intensity that eventually gave rise to national socialism.

Speaking about the matter of footballers abducted earlier this month from the Dera Bugti district, Bugti confirmed that four of them have returned. The national flag was lowered to half-mast on government buildings, including the Balochistan Assembly, Chief Minister House, Governor House, and the Balochistan High Court. Similarly, police in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa also registered a case regarding the suicide blast in Hangu’s police lines against unknown terrorists, based on the complaint filed by SHO Doaba. Yesterday, Balochistan interim Information Minister Jan Achakzai had said that the “enemy” wanted to destroy religious tolerance and peace in Balochistan with “foreign blessings”. https://twitter.com/PakPMO/status/1708093922440843333?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1708093922440843333%7Ctwgr%5E2430e1e00ded4953e890c8d4cc19bac251eddedb%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dawn.com%2Fnews%2F1778558“The UK foreign secretary condemned the terrorist attacks in Mastung and Hangu and condoled the loss of innocent lives,” the PM Office said.

The army’s involvement in these critical areas has evidently resonated with the public, solidifying its position as a trusted guardian of the nation. The breakdown of approval ratings by region further highlights the army’s popularity. Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) and Punjab recorded the highest approval ratings at 91% and 90%, respectively, emphasising the institution’s widespread appeal. Sindh, with an 88% approval rating, and Balochistan, with 66%, also demonstrate substantial trust in the army’s performance. While the Pakistan Army basks in high approval ratings, other institutions and politicians face lower levels of public trust.

As BRICS nations assert their collective weight on the global stage, they are actively participating in the unmaking of a world order that has long been defined by Western hegemony. This expansion underscores BRICS’ commitment to adapt and modernise in the face of a multipolar world order, attracting interest from various countries, including some traditional US allies. BRICS represents a significant departure from the US-led international order, uniting against Western failures in global crisis management. Nonetheless, the BRICS countries’ assertive stance and their pursuit of greater representation and influence in global affairs signify a significant challenge to the American-led international order. This shift away from a unipolar world order led by the United States reflects the changing dynamics of global power.

Western countries, driven by their economic and geopolitical interests have often overlooked India’s persecution of minorities, curbs on media and even support for terrorist activities on foreign countries. Despite the diplomatic row between Canada and India regarding the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, another Sikh activist Sukhdool Singh was killed in Winnipeg, Canada. With geo-economic and geopolitical interests at stake, all member countries in these alliances are faced with a difficult situation. India, however, strengthened by such acts in its neighborhood, has unwittingly violated this order by killing a Canadian citizen. Canada is also being supported by the US and other Western countries in an effort to protect their value system.
