With tensions rising in India and Pakistan, it was only a matter of time before Trump had to step in and put his foot in his mouth.

At this point, you've probably read 1,001 post-mortem analyses of the India-Pakistan conflict, desperately searching for some new nugget or data point that helps you understand this brief, but intense clash between these two South Asian rivals.In this sea of hot takes, one essay stands out both for its analytical clarity and its wisdom. That piece was written by the scholar Joshua T. White and it's simply titled, “Lessons for the next India-Pakistan war.”It was published by the Brookings Institution, where Josh is a non-resident fellow with the Foreign Policy program. Josh is also professor of the practice of international affairs at The Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) in Washington, D.C.Josh has served at the White House as senior advisor and director for South Asian affairs at the National Security Council. And he's also worked at the Pentagon, where he helped get the U.S.-India Defense Technology and Trade Initiative off the ground.To talk more about his piece and the recent conflict, Josh rejoins Milan on the podcast this week. He and Milan discuss how the global debate on “attribution” has tilted decisively in India's favor, troubling new precedents about military target selection, the depth of Pakistani information operations, and the widespread use of drones and unmanned aerial vehicles in the recent conflict. Plus, the two preview Josh's forthcoming book, Vigilante Islamists: Religious Parties and Anti-State Violence in Pakistan.Episode notes: 1. Joshua T.

Pope Francis will be laid to rest on Saturday after lying in state for three days in St. Peter's Basilica, where the Catholic faithful are expected to flock to pay their respects. The funeral has been set for Saturday at 10 a.m. in St. Peter's Square. President Donald Trump said he and first lady Melania Trump plan to attend, while Argentine President Javier Milei is also expected to be present.The United States is looking to sell more energy and defense equipment to India, Vice President JD Vance said on Tuesday during a visit to the country, adding that ties between the two nations will shape the century. "If India and the United States work together successfully, we're going to see a 21st century that is prosperous and peaceful," he said in a speech in the northwestern Indian city of Jaipur. "But I also believe that if we fail to work together successfully, the 21st century could be a very dark time for all of humanity."

As global trade faces one of its most uncertain chapters yet, India and the U.S. are negotiating what could become a defining economic agreement of the decade: a bilateral trade deal aimed at scaling their trade volume to $500 billion by 2030, a fourfold increase from its value in 2024. But behind the diplomatic handshakes lie tough negotiations and clashing economic priorities.In this episode, host Anirban Chowdhury speaks with Bipin Sapra, Tax Partner and global trade expert at EY India, to break down what’s really at stake as both nations attempt to find common ground. At a time when Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs have rattled global markets, India and the U.S. have quietly signed the first terms of reference for this ambitious agreement. So, which sectors stand to gain or lose? Could this be a strategic disruptor to China’s dominance in global trade? And what does it mean for India’s role in the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The 15th Finance Commission aims to push states toward financial self-reliance. While overall central transfers to states have crossed ₹9.89 lakh crore in FY25, direct revenue support has dwindled. Strong state tax revenue growth (11.1% in H1 FY25) is helping, but fiscal deficits remain near the 3% threshold. The big question: Can states sustain financial discipline without heavy central backing? Samsung Hit with $601M Tax Demand Samsung Electronics faces a $601 million tax demand from Indian authorities over alleged tariff evasion on telecom equipment imports. Officials claim Samsung misclassified “Remote Radio Heads” (RRH) to avoid 10-20% duties. The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) launched a probe in 2021, revealing Samsung imported $784 million worth of RRHs duty-free between 2018 and 2021. Samsung denies wrongdoing and is exploring legal options. This case is part of India's broader scrutiny of foreign firms' import practices—Volkswagen is also under investigation for a hefty back-tax demand. Gold Rally Keeps SGB Investors from Cashing Out Gold prices are soaring, but investors in Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGBs) aren't redeeming. Despite 14.7 tonnes being eligible for early exit, only 0.5 tonnes have been encashed, as many expect prices to touch ₹1 lakh per 10 gm amid geopolitical tensions. SGBs, introduced in 2015, offer an 8-year tenure with early exit after five years. Those who invested in 2017-18 at ₹2,951 per gm are now sitting on a 14.7% annualized return, outpacing Nifty's 13.4%. Some experts advise locking in gains and shifting to fixed deposits yielding 7-8%. Meanwhile, gold ETFs are gaining traction, with assets nearly doubling in a year. Wipro GE Healthcare Bets Big on Local Manufacturing Wipro GE Healthcare has launched a $1 billion investment plan to boost local manufacturing, aiming to produce 70% of its products in India by 2030, up from 40-45% today. The company exports medical devices to 70 countries, with the US and Europe as key markets. While US reciprocal tariffs on Indian medtech are a concern, Wipro GE remains confident, citing its diversified supply chain. The investment will expand R&D, manufacturing capacity, and add a new facility to its four existing plants in Karnataka. With India's medtech sector projected to grow 20-23% annually, Wipro GE is positioning itself for a surge in demand. Indian Defence Stocks Poised for a Rebound? Indian defence stocks have slumped in the recent market sell-off, but analysts see a turnaround as US-India defence ties deepen. During Trump's first term, India gained license-free access to critical US military tech. While a second Trump presidency may initially prioritize US defence exports over Indian collaboration, long-term prospects remain strong. The US-India joint statement in February outlined plans for a 10-year defence partnership, co-production agreements, and an industry alliance for autonomous systems. Meanwhile, India's own defence push is accelerating, with ₹54,000 crore in fresh military acquisitions and a ₹50,000 crore annual defence export target by 2029. However, analysts caution that some stocks remain overvalued, and investors should adopt a selective approach.

At OfficeTiger, Sanjay served as CFO, general counsel, and member of the board. He would later co-found Pangea3, one of the first major businesses in the legal process outsourcing industry. At Maker5, Sanjay helps law firms and legal departments transform their processes, workflows, and outcomes.

On today's special bonus episode, recorded live from the Road to Majority Conference in Washington, D.C., put on by the Faith and Freedom Coalition, I was able to sit down with Purnima Nath who is running for the House of Representatives in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In Purnima's view, politicians are interested in saving their seats and raising funds to win the next election. She wants everyone to know she is not running for election for a "seat". She is running so she can speak the truth to power and keeping the sanctity of public service, which is what politics was supposed to be. She does not want to watch destruction of society and the country she calls home, while politicians enriching their pockets. Purnima believes if we are to make our community a better place to live, grow and raise a family, we must all do our part to change it. She says our system is broken and we deserve better. Purnima is an American, with an extremely humble background. She believes it is her duty to serve the community and has dedicated her life to do so. Purnima obtained her MBA in Northwestern University and spent years as a management consultant, helping organizations and corporations grow and become more efficient. Her passion for community-work led to her building a non-profit from ground up, dedicated to building US-India relationships, which has helped bring visibility to the Indian community, help local businesses grow, create jobs and promote diversity, culture and inclusion.
