Good policy primer by Aditya Gowdara Shivamurthy on India’s stakes ahead of presidential election in Sri Lanka. Anura Dissanayake’s Delhi visit last year an example of how India hedges its bets — rather than putting all its eggs into one basket as per some mythologies. orfonline.org/research/sri-l…

Had on opportunity to speak to NDTV on Indian tourists finding alternatives to the Maldives, and the politics and geopolitics behind it: youtube.com/watch?v=vz327I… Also spoke to The Lallantop (Hindi) on the upcoming Sri Lankan elections: youtube.com/watch?v=2CSrlu…

An absolute pleasure Said Chaya

The uncertainty of the country’s political direction has pushed India to engage across the party lines…it is bracing itself for the elections, exploring options to work with any govt that comes to power. My comments for ThePrintIndia Sanya Mathur theprint.in/world/as-sri-l…

Writing in ORF, on the Maldives’ debt situation and the poor governance choices taking us adrift. “…implementing these reforms will require political leaders to balance the imperatives of economic stewardship with the realities of democratic politics.”

Muizzu to visit India very soon. A big win for Delhi’s strategic patience and diplomacy. Also signals Delhi’s pragmatic approach when dealing with leaders who have not necessarily been pro-India. sun.com.mv/91854
