| Abstract: | During the last few decades, space has gained extensive importance in many aspects of military operations. The ‘Star Wars’ started in military competition and still main component of military. Today Eagle is sole super power of the world and space as well but this position is not sure in future due to Dragon rising, as global power in both hard and soft power. A strong example of this doctrine was Dragon ASAT test in January 2007, which was a clear wakeup call for Eagle and greatly influenced the security and military capabilities of the Eagle and rest of the world as well. India is also investing huge amount on its space program and singed a bilateral agreement with U.S and Israel to establish collaboration in the both civilian and military space program and nuclear deal as well. This space cooperation and nuclear deal has deeply affected the security environment of South Asia and opened the eyes of both China and Pakistan. A new ‘Star Wars’ between Eagle and Dragon is also the base of South Asian space race that is a disaster for the peace and security of South Asia and would make dangerous zone of the world. Therefore, Pakistan must accept and deal with the reality that conflicts and wars in today’s world will be driven by the increasing interdependence between conventional, nuclear, and space war. The terms in this article Eagle & Dragon refer U.S & China: Eagle refers for U.S and Dragon for China. |

| Abstract: | This article spells out the details of Kalabagh Dam project such as location and technical specifications of the project as well as the cost- benefit analysis of the dam. In addition, this article accounts for the technical apprehensions regarding Kalabagh Dam. The dam was also aimed at augmenting agricultural growth, providing a cushion against flood threats, generating low-priced hydro-power and lastly to compensate for the depleting capacity of the existing mega reservoirs to store water due to sedimentation. The theory deployed on the article known as cost-benefit analysis delineates the worth of the mega project of Pakistan but it is hard to say that it is still unfixed due to decision making approach of politicians of the country who remained unable to resolve it. Incumbent government must take Kalabagh Dam under consideration to build it as soon as possible because of its natural site and to overcome the energy slowdown. |

| Abstract: | The study explores that even in the 21st century Kashmir is deprive from freedom under government of of Nraendra Modi. Since 1947 there is a stark restriction on basic human freedoms and blood-letting continues in the Kashmir Valley which has undermined the peace process and prosperity of the region. Kashmir under the partition plan of Indian Independence act was free to join India or Pakistan but India is always a hurdle in the way of Kashmir’s right of self-determination. Hindutva project of Modi and his party is humiliating Muslims in Kashmir. A shameless and disrespectful boldness of Modi led BJP government and its violent attack on federalism and democracy further stir up alienation among Kashmiri people instead of fostering sense of belonging to the Indian union. Whatever political, physical and psychological mark has to be forced to endure by India and Pakistan over Kashmir due to stubborn attitude and authoritarian rule of Indian government, it is Kashmir that on every occasion suffered more. The study is based on qualitative methods and examines the impacts of Modi Nationalism in Kashmir that how it is making the future of south Asian region darker. |
