South Asia in recent years has become a hotspot of political turmoil, instability, and sudden regime changes. While India has managed to remain steady as a functioning democracy, its neighbors have repeatedly fallen into crises triggered by mass protests, corruption scandals, and violent confrontations. The latest country to face such chaos is Nepal.

France is once again facing a wave of turmoil that has shaken the foundations of daily life. On Wednesday, the Bloquons Tout (“Block Everything”) movement spread rapidly across the nation.

The ties between India and the United States have gone through a difficult phase in recent months.

His advisers also launched repeated attacks on New Delhi, often using harsh words aimed directly at Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Nepal has just witnessed one of the largest citizens’ uprisings in its history.

US President Donald Trump is once again surrounded by a storm of controversy. He has been facing criticism for his trade policies, especially the recent tariff move against India, and now an entirely different issue has come to the surface.

The latest uproar began after the House Oversight Committee released what it described as Trump’s alleged sexually suggestive letter to Epstein, written back in 2003.

A major controversy has broken out after eight retired judges came together to issue a sharp public letter against the Opposition’s Vice-Presidential candidate, Justice B. Sudarshan Reddy.

The rejection of bail to Umar Khalid, an accused in the 2020 Delhi anti-Hindu riots case, has once again unsettled the so-called left-liberal ecosystem. Earlier this month, the Delhi High Court dismissed Khalid’s bail plea, noting in its judgment that the accusations against him and his co-accused were prima facie true. Despite this clear judicial reasoning, ‘journalist’ Rajdeep Sardesai appeared visibly disturbed by the court’s rejection of Umar Khalid’s bail plea.
