The face of global politics is ever-evolving, often engulfing us in a hodgepodge of indistinguishable noises that seem to come from all around us. As dynamics shift in the blink of an eye, 'Next of Kin' attempts to keep a track of what's going on and how a particular situation came to be the way it is. If you would like to explore and understand the multiple dimensions that surround global scenarios then join Riddhima and Muskan as they delve into the realm of Global Gambit and gain insight into the crux of the matter: incidents that led to a domino effect and changed the world as we know it.
