Against rules: Editorial on India’s stance on tensions between Iran and Pakistan
For now, the tensions between Pakistan and Iran are no longer on the boil, with the neighbours committing to de-escalate matters, although their broader border differences remain intact. Yet, India’s response to the Iranian attack raises questions that could complicate its responses to subsequent crises around the world, including when New Delhi might be involved. India’s position on the cross-border attacks risks weakening its ability to stand by that principle in other global hotspots. Israel and Iran, for instance, frequently target enemies across border lines even if these raise the prospects of escalation. India rightly argues for all nations to uphold international law because that also benefits New Delhi’s strategic calculus.

The TISS report says that around 35-41 per cent of mathematics teachers, both in government and private schools, lack the necessary expertise to teach the subject. Overall, India’s school education, especially public schools in rural areas, is simply catastrophic, for a country that is relying on its ‘demographic dividend’. According to a Ministry of Education report released in 2022, States spend almost 80 per cent of their education budget on primary and secondary education.
