About
The Geopolitical Lens

Geopolitical Lens was established to respond to a growing need for grounded, India-centric research that goes beyond surface-level narratives.

India’s diversity means that policy outcomes, economic performance, and strategic relevance often vary significantly across states and regions. Understanding these differences is essential for effective planning, communication, and governance.

Geopolitical Lens adopts an India-first research approach, with a strong emphasis on:

  • State-to-state comparisons

  • Sector-specific analysis

  • Historical context behind present outcomes
