Debate Topic to Explore Global War Dynamics

The theme for this year’s Prativaad is:
“World on the verge of war: Inevitable tool of participating nations or manipulative tool of powerful nations”
(Hindi translation: "युद्ध की कगार पर विश्व : युद्धरत राष्ट्र का अनिवार्य विकल्प या शक्तिशाली राष्ट्र का हितसाधन")

This timely topic aims to ignite intellectual discourse on the growing tensions and war-like scenarios prevailing globally, questioning whether such situations are a result of unavoidable national interests or a strategic manipulation by dominant powers.

Objectives of the Event

The debate is designed to foster:

• Critical thinking and global awareness among students
• A multidisciplinary approach to international relations
• Insight into how power politics shapes global peace and conflict

The event encourages participants to delve into historical patterns, diplomatic failures, defense policies, and geopolitical strategies that contribute to modern-day warfare and international friction.
