In the aftermath of the tragic killing of 26 civilians in Pahalgam, how should India respond — and what signals do recent government measures really send? Meanwhile, India has moved up in the World Press Freedom Index. But does this reflect actual change on the ground, or just a shifting global baseline?

On South Central Episode 25, Dhanya Rajendran, Pooja Prasanna, and Leena Reghunath speak with international relations expert Professor Amitabh Mattoo and senior journalist Nirupama Subramaniam.
