Cost of Terror!-Weekend musings on Indo- Pak conflict outcomes-

All the follg is a package aimed at Deterrence even though strict implementation is viewed with skepticism as only "virtue signalling" laced with cynical comments: 1) IWT abeyance which today means that Pakistan will not have info on waterflow - flooding or lack of water; 2) Act of Terror=Act of War will give a signal that Pak cannot shirk it's responsibility saying non-state actors did that- when whole world has seen how Pak Army gave military salute to Terrorists killed in bombing and leading the prayer was US designated global Terrorist Hafiz Abdur Rauf in front of cameras i.e obviously Non-state actors are part of Pak military- but India has shown any Act of Terror by non-state Actors will have repercussions on State Actors whether military or otherwise paying their price with a pound of flesh;3)Handing over of PoK before talks- this is based on the relevant UN resolution on the matter and nothing new; 4) handing over designated Terrorists like Hafiz Sayid, Masood Azhar etc and those involved in other Terror acts in India including Pahalgam massacre. All this must be viewed in a" new normal" of proven India's military might and the damage it can cause to State Actors incl Pak military- this is the comprehensive Deterrance Package envisaged by India- only time can prove it's efficacy.

In any case Cost of Terror is increasing for Pakistan State with every Terror attack irrespective of who the perpetrators are- either by Non-state Actors or State Actors.

The Indian Rupee recently crossed the 97 mark against the US Dollar, and it doesn't seem to be slowing down. If you've been tracking exchange rates or planning a trip abroad, you've probably felt the pinch. Everything from imported electronics to cooking oil is getting more expensive. And your money just doesn't stretch as far as it used to. This isn't a one-day blip. The rupee has been on a steady downward slide for months, and the reasons go deeper than most headlines suggest. It's a mix of what's happening inside India's economy and what's happening across the globe. Trade deficits, foreign investors pulling out money, rising oil prices, the US Federal Reserve keeping interest rates high — all of these are pulling the rupee in the wrong direction at the same time. In this post, we'll break down the key domestic pressures weighing on the rupee and the global forces making the US Dollar stronger. We'll also look at what the Reserve Bank ...
