Part II: Narratives as Power: How Turkey’s Hybrid Statecraft Targets India
By CNSS Team (Middle East)
Narratives as Power: How Turkey’s Hybrid Statecraft Targets India (Part II) examines the deeper structural mechanisms behind Ankara’s Pakistan-aligned narrative campaign against India. Building on earlier analysis, this dossier explores how academic platforms, civil society networks, diaspora organisations, and informal state-linked structures amplify contested narratives on Kashmir and India’s internal security.
Situating Turkey’s approach within the framework of hybrid warfare and public diplomacy, the study highlights the strategic risks posed to India’s global reputation and policy space. It argues for a long-term, institutional, and narrative-driven Indian response through diplomacy, academic engagement, and strategic partnerships.
