Pakistan defeated India in a high-profile debate at Oxford Union with a two-thirds majority vote. The Pakistani student panel clearly outperformed India’s second-string team. The debate highlighted Pakistan’s strong argumentation, data-based reasoning, and moral case.
India initially withdrew its main high-profile speakers, including General Narwa, Dr. Subramaniam Swamy, and Sachin Pilot. Instead, India sent lesser-known panelists J. Sai Deepak, Pandit Satish Sharma, and Devarchan Banerjee. Pakistan responded by confidently presenting Oxford-based students Musa Harraj, Israr Khan Kakr, and Ahmed Nawaz Khan.
