Pratyush Agarwal
Meet The Vice Chairperson
“The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.” — Sun Tzu
In an era where global discourse is shaped as much by strategy as by speech, Pratyush Agarwal steps into the role of Vice Chairperson of the National Security Council Committee at SCIMUN 2026 with a firm belief in purposeful diplomacy and disciplined debate.
For Pratyush, the National Security Council is not merely a venue for discussion but the strategic epicenter where a nation's future is secured. With a deep interest in geopolitics, national defense, and global diplomacy, he views the committee through a lens of pragmatic realism.
With an approach defined by analytical depth and intellectual rigor, he is committed to steering debate away from performative grandstanding and toward substantive, actionable solutions.
“If you do not have a strategy, you are part of someone else’s strategy.”
At SCIMUN 2026, Pratyush looks forward to witnessing bold ideas, calculated compromises, and resolutions forged through thoughtful contention.
