A report from Al Jazeera's The Listening Post program has highlighted significant political developments across three countries. In India, youth-led protests have returned to Delhi after the Electoral Commission removed 130 million names from voter rolls, accompanied by a crackdown on journalists. Pakistan has declared a state of emergency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, imposing a media blackout and internet shutdown after protests demanding the release of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan. In Brazil, more than three years after Jair Bolsonaro's fall, a new generation of evangelical political influencers is mobilising followers through religious media.

He added that Brazil might soon follow, making it the latest in a series of right-led governments realigning toward Israel.
