Pakistan is once again witnessing heated debate over a long-discussed but never-implemented proposal—administrative restructuring through the creation of new provinces. After decades of hesitation, the issue has resurfaced, driven by the current government’s argument that smaller provinces could enhance governance and service delivery. Federal Minister for Communications Abdul Aleem Khan has stated unequivocally that the creation of smaller provinces is now “inevitable”.

Although today’s proposed division is administrative rather than…

Modi’s statement comes at a time when the country has been grappling with several operational…
Every winter, Delhi-NCR battles a thick, suffocating layer of smog that refuses to lift for weeks. Governments claim the number of farm fires in Punjab and Haryana has dropped, yet the pollution levels in the national capital remain stubbornly severe. This contradiction has puzzled citizens, raised questions about data reliability, and sparked debates about the true extent of stubble-burning across North India. Recent insights from Indian space scientists and international aerosol researchers reveal a surprising, even clever, explanation: farmers have learned exactly when satellites scan their fields — and they have shifted their burning schedule to avoid detection. The result?…
A sharp new controversy has erupted in Punjab and beyond following a claim made by Congress leader Navjot Kaur Sidhu, who alleged that as much as ₹500 crore was being offered in a bid to secure the Chief Minister’s post in her state.

India’s aviation sector has witnessed remarkable growth over the last decade, with millions of passengers choosing to fly every month. However, beneath this expansion lies a fragile ecosystem where market power is increasingly concentrated in the hands of just two major players. The recent wave of IndiGo’s mass cancellations has highlighted the cracks in this duopoly-led aviation landscape, raising questions about the long-term sustainability, competition, and safety of India’s air travel market. Today, the combined market share of India’s top two airlines—IndiGo and Air India—dominates the skies. While consolidation has brought operational efficiencies for the airlines themselves, it has also…
