Politics & Society

Why the Hindutva vs Hinduism Narrative Won’t Defeat BJP
Why the Hindutva vs Hinduism Narrative Won’t Defeat BJP
By Paarth Pande
All Opposition parties are trying to differentiate Hinduism from Hindutva in the hope of weaning Hindu voters away from Hindutva. But this narrative plays into the BJP's hands, demoralises Muslim voters and other suffering minorities, and limits space for new ideas that can counter Hindutva successfully.

How Diversity Drives Innovation and Economic Growth
How Diversity Drives Innovation and Economic Growth
By Samira Mathur
In this age of de-globalisation and aggressive nationalism, many people have begun to believe that cultural diversity is a hindrance to growth. However, history has shown that diverse societies tend to be more innovative, efficient and prosperous in the long run than homogenous ones.

Governance

India Needs a More Independent President and State Governors
India Needs a More Independent President and State Governors
By Siddharth Mohan
The president and the governors should transcend politics. The president must be allowed to prepare his own address to Parliament, rather than behave as a spokesperson for the prime minister. Governors must act as independent links between the Union and states rather than as partisan appointees.

Progressive Cultures Let Women Choose What to Wear
Progressive Cultures Let Women Choose What to Wear
By Katherine Abraham
From the chastity of the white Christian wedding veil to the passionate crimson on a Hindu bride, the reasons to wear a veil are many: modesty, austerity, a marital symbol, protection, and the most important – a conscious choice by a woman to decide what she feels most comfortable in.

Education

COVID-19 Has Forced a Rethink of the Education System
By Katherine Abraham
COVID-19 has significantly upended the traditional learning process and has impacted students and teachers at all levels. In order to recover lost gains in education, India will have to pursue greater flexibility in its education system and be more open to newer and less traditional solutions.

Healthcare

India Must Pay More Attention to Silent Killer Scrub Typhus
India Must Pay More Attention to Silent Killer Scrub Typhus
By Shivam Bahuguna
While scrub typhus is curable, it is also dangerous if it festers too long. When undetected, its mortality rate is around 13 percent. Owing to poor awareness, and due to the fact that both of them occur during the same seasons, many people mistake scrub typhus for dengue and end up mistreating it.

Energy & Environment

COVID-19 Is An Opportunity to Switch to Green Energy
COVID-19 Is An Opportunity to Switch to Green Energy
By Kashvi Singh
Governments face a major dilemma: Should they respond to the downturn caused by the pandemic with more emissions in the short term or should they sacrifice short-term growth for long-term gains? In truth, the pandemic gives the world an opportunity to pursue faster growth through green energy.

Foreign Affairs

America’s New National Security Strategy Puts China Over Russia
America’s New National Security Strategy Puts China Over Russia
By Armaan Mathur
In the wake of the Ukrainian crisis, there was apprehension that U.S. foreign policy might just end up taking the wrong turn and focusing on Russia. But Biden's new National Security Strategy portrays Russia as a declining imperialist power and pins the focus on countering China in the Indo-Pacific.
