As universities race to integrate artificial intelligence into classrooms, research labs and administrative systems, a deeper transformation is quietly unfolding. The real challenge is no longer about adopting new tools, but about rethinking the very structure, purpose and future of the university in an AI-driven world. By Ravi Janardhan Universities across the world are rapidly introducing artificial intelligence into teaching, research and administration. By early 2026, more than 86% of students globally report using AI in their studies, often outpacing institutional policies and guidelines. New AI programs, research centres and industry partnerships are emerging across campuses as institutions seek to…

In a dramatic and unapologetic pivot, President Donald Trump is single-handedly attempting to dismantle the rules-based international order the United States itself constructed after World War II. Through unilateral military strikes, the direct abduction of foreign heads of state, aggressive territorial rhetoric, and the sidelining of longstanding alliances and global institutions, Trump is reshaping global power dynamics on his own terms—bypassing multilateral consensus, congressional oversight, and traditional diplomatic norms. Far from restoring American strength through restraint, these moves signal an era of naked unilateralism where Washington asserts dominance not as a guardian of shared rules, but as an unchallenged great…

Few elements of Bollywood cinema capture public attention like the “item song.” These high-energy dance numbers—featuring glamorous performers, catchy beats, and provocative choreography—have become essential tools for marketing films. However, they also frequently ignite debates about morality, censorship, gender representation, and the commercialization of cinema. The debate resurfaced recently with Sarke Chunar Teri Sarke, a dance number that went viral soon after release but also faced criticism for allegedly suggestive lyrics and visuals. To understand why such songs provoke strong reactions, it is necessary to examine the longer history of controversial item numbers in Bollywood. Nora Fatehi and Sanjay Dutt…

Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping the global information ecosystem. One of the most striking developments is the rise of AI-generated news presenters, often called synthetic anchors or digital avatars. These lifelike presenters can deliver news, analysis, and commentary without ever appearing in a physical studio. As platforms such as YouTube and X (Twitter) become flooded with automated video content produced using tools like Synthesia and HeyGen, journalists and researchers are beginning to examine the implications for media credibility, information warfare, and the future of public trust in digital news. By Muneshwar  Prasad The rapid development of artificial intelligence in the…

In modern conflicts, wars are fought as much through narratives, images, and digital manipulation as through missiles and military strikes. The confrontation between Iran and Israel illustrates how information warfare—ranging from propaganda and psychological operations to AI-generated misinformation and algorithm-driven amplification—has become a central tool of geopolitical competition. As rival narratives circulate across global media and social platforms, the struggle to control perception increasingly shapes how conflicts are understood, debated, and legitimized in the international arena.

Modern wars are no longer fought only with missiles, drones, and soldiers. They are also fought with algorithms and synthetic media. During the ongoing Iran war, artificial intelligence has emerged as a powerful tool for producing fake images, deepfake videos, and manipulated battlefield footage that spread rapidly across social media platforms. These AI-generated visuals blur the line between truth and fabrication, shaping public perception and turning the digital information space into a parallel battlefield. By Newswriters News Desk The Information War Behind the Iran Conflict The conflict involving Iran, Israel, and the United States has triggered a wave of AI-generated…

As the conflict drags on, Washington faces a dangerous strategic dilemma What began as a campaign aimed at quickly weakening Iran is turning into a far more complicated confrontation. As the conflict drags on, Washington faces a strategic dilemma: it may lack both the means to decisively defeat Iran and the political space to disengage without consequences. With regional alliances strained, global energy routes at risk, and the specter of nuclear proliferation looming, the war threatens to reshape the geopolitical balance of the Middle East. © Hassan Ghaedi / Anadolu via Getty Images By Sergey Poletaev, Information analyst and publicist;…

High in the Garhwal Himalayas of northern India lies a small glacial lake that has puzzled historians, scientists, and trekkers for decades.

By Newswriters News Desk A Remote Lake in the High Himalayas Roopkund Lake is a small glacial lake located in the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand in northern India. Perched at an altitude of…

Since the abolition of the monarchy in 2008 and the adoption of a new constitution in 2015, Nepal has struggled to stabilize its democratic institutions. Frequent government changes, coalition politics, ideological rivalries, and growing public dissatisfaction with traditional parties have shaped the political landscape. Against this backdrop, the recent elections are widely viewed not merely as a routine democratic exercise…
