Books, especially on geopolitics, and think-tanks occasionally either contribute, or point to, the thinking of a government or growing tensions.

- JAYADEVA RANADE

In the backdrop of the current tensions between the United States and China, one of the leading US think-tanks, the Washington-based Hudson Institute, released a report in July titled "China Post Communism: Preparing for a Post-Communist China". Edited by Miles Yu, who served as China Advisor to US President Donald Trump during his first term, the book comprises 10 chapters, four of which are by contributors who have chosen to remain anonymous.

Quite apart from the provocative title of the report, the various chapters too deal with specific subjects centring on replacing the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and China's current government and military establishments with alternate structures. It is almost like a guide to the dismantling of the CCP and the reshaping of present-day China.

EXTERMINATE MOSQUITOES TO ERADICATE EIGHT DEADLY DISEASES

Till now, Iceland, with a harsh, unique climate and geographical isolation, was the only country in the world that was completely free of mosquitoes. Three mosquitoes were found in the Kjos valley in October 2025. Scientists blamed rising temperatures due to climate change and increased travel for these arrivals. Mosquitoes are vectors for deadly diseases like malaria, dengue, chikungunya, Japanese encephalitis, Zika, yellow fever, West Nile virus fever, and filariasis. In 2023, there were an estimated 263 million malaria cases and 597,000 deaths globally. World Malaria Day on 25 April and National Dengue Day on May 16th in India highlight the need for public education, continued investment, and sustained political commitment for prevention and control measures, especially before the monsoon season. ‘Chikungunya' means \"to become contorted,\" (due to severe joint pains) in the Kimakonde language in Tanzania and Mozambique.

The House of Mr Vance

Religious conversions have entirely different connotations for Hindus due to the coercive, including violent, nature of both Islamic and Christian proselytizing in the Indian subcontinent. In Western liberal societies, such as the US, however, religious conversions do not evoke the same response.

WELFARE DELIVERY, MODI FACTOR PROPELLING NDA IN BIHAR POLLS

The Bihar elections opened with opposition parties confident that Nitish Kumar's long incumbency and public fatigue courtesy his 20 years of rule would translate into a difficult contest for the NDA. In the early phase of campaigning, this seemed plausible. The same feeling was also shared by top National Democratic Alliance leaders while interacting with journalists privately, including by two senior BJP Union Ministers, who spoke to this correspondent before and after the poll schedule was announced.
