I am looking for a few Research Volunteers to join me for the “Hyderabad Gen Z Sentiment Survey”, an independent and self-financed research project that aims to understand the aspirations, concerns, discontents and views of young people towards politics, policies and institutions.

Students and faculty members from Hyderabad who can help collect responses from 17–29 year olds in colleges, universities and localities around Hyderabad are welcome to join hands with me. Volunteers will receive limited monetary support based on verified Google Form responses, a certificate, and an opportunity to work on research papers based on the collected data.

The project will run from 30 August to 15 September 2026, with flexible working hours. If you are interested, please scan the QR code in the poster or use the Google Form link to apply: https://t.co/dkFTvdYCxR

The latest Women, Peace and Security Index reveals a striking global divide. Nordic countries continue to lead, with Denmark, Iceland, Norway, Sweden and Finland among the highest-ranked nations. At the other end, women in conflict-affected and institutionally fragile countries continue to face severe barriers to security, justice and inclusion.

India records a score of 0.61, reminding us that economic growth alone cannot ensure women’s empowerment. Real progress requires safer public spaces, equal opportunities, access to justice, political representation and freedom from discrimination.

The difference between the best- and worst-performing countries is more than threefold. These rankings are therefore not merely numbers—they reflect women’s everyday experiences, opportunities and dignity.

At Billion Connect, an internship is more than completing projects—it is about exchanging ideas, building friendships and creating memories beyond the workplace.

Some of our Summer Interns 2026 recently came together with the Billion Connect team for a wonderful get-together, filled with lively conversations, laughter and shared reflections on their internship journey. The gathering concluded with a memorable farewell lunch at Pista House Prime Dining, Hyderabad.

As this enriching journey comes to an end, we celebrate not merely the completion of an internship, but the connections, confidence and experiences our interns carry forward.

Good work builds careers. Great experiences build people. That is life at Billion Connect!

We extend our heartfelt thanks to Mr. Robbin Sharma, Founding Director, ShowTime Consulting, for an inspiring and engaging interaction with the interns of Billion Connect Summer Internship 2026.

His session on “Journey as a Consultant: Challenges and Lessons” offered a rare behind-the-scenes perspective on political consulting, leadership, professional ethics, and the realities of building a successful consulting career. Drawing from his rich experience, Mr. Sharma shared practical insights, candid reflections, and valuable lessons that motivated our interns to think critically, act professionally, and pursue excellence.

We also sincerely appreciate Prof. Afroz Alam for his generosity, and willingness to mentor the next generation of researchers and policy professionals.

We also congratulate our Summer Interns for their enthusiastic participation and thank our coordinators, Vaishnavi Singh and Sumanta Khatiwara, for successfully organizing the session.

Five states. Five verdicts in the making.

In two, the winds whisper “continue” — a rare pro-incumbency mood, where governance seems to have found approval.
In two others, the ground murmurs “enough” — classic anti-incumbency, the democratic urge to reset and rethink.
And then there is one state, standing at the crossroads — not quite convinced, not fully disillusioned… a political grey zone where every vote will weigh heavier than usual.

India votes, not in unison, but in layers —
of memory, mood, and moment.

Happy to share that Dainik Bhaskar, the most widely read Hindi newspaper, published my piece on Telangana’s caste survey report on the front page across all its editions yesterday.

[Afroz Alam @afrozalam2]

Happy to share that my column has been published in The Indian Express. I argued that the recent editorial (“Bihar to Karnataka, Congress must ask why”, November 29) leans on a familiar narrative: portraying Rahul Gandhi as “apocalyptic”.

I disagree—not because the Congress lacks challenges, but because such interpretations overlook how power, money, and institutions have fundamentally reshaped India’s electoral landscape.

Field Insights from Jubilee Hills!

Our interns have successfully conducted a “Muslim Sentiment Survey” across 41 minority-dominant polling stations of the Jubilee Hills Assembly Constituency between 10–21 October 2025.

📊 Over 6,865 Muslim voters randomly selected from Voter List were interviewed face-to-face using structured questionnaires.

This survey was designed to capture micro-level insights into voter attitudes, preferences, and booth-wise dynamics, helping us understand the evolving political and social sentiments on the ground.

A big thank you to our dedicated interns, field coordinators, and data team for completing this large-scale exercise with sincerity and precision.

I guess desperate times call for desperate measures 😁

After 2 years in Govt, looks like Congress party is finally waking up to ground realities

Promising the moon to cine workers, inducting Azharuddin in cabinet and ministers desperately running around in Hyderabad Gullies like never before

Let me reiterate, when the Congress is made to lose its deposit in Jubilee Hills By-election

Only then, they will start implementing the 6 guarantees and 420 promises made in 2023

Time to teach a lesson to Congress & its leadership

[Afroz Alam @afrozalam2]

Happy to share my latest article published in The Indian Express on recurring internal feuds in regional parties.

Each time I map the ruptures in these parties, the pattern seems less about ideas and more about control: Who decides, who benefits, and who is next. The feud is rarely an aberration; it is built into the ecology in which minor parties operate.

I argued that the health of Indian democracy depends not only on free and fair elections between parties, but also on democracy within them. If parties cannot govern themselves predictably and fairly, how can we reasonably expect them to govern us?

The fight against factionalism will not be won by clever press releases or cleverer alliances. It can be won — slowly — by building procedures that outlast personalities. Only then will minor parties stop falling to feuds and start delivering the stable, grounded politics they promise.

Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback on it. I’ve shared the link in the comment box.
