Existing evaluations of political bias in large language models (LLMs) typically classify outputs as left- or right-leaning. We extend this perspective by examining how ideological tendencies vary across topics and how consistently models maintain their positions, a property we refer to as stability. To capture this dimension, we propose PReSS (Political Response Stability under Stress), an automated black-box framework that evaluates LLMs by jointly considering model and topic context, categorizing responses into four stance types: stable-left, unstable-left, stable-right, and unstable-right. Applying PReSS to 9 widely used LLMs across 19 political topics reveals substantial variation in stance stability; for instance, a model that is left-leaning overall can exhibit stable-right behavior on certain topics. This highlights the importance of topic-aware and fine-grained evaluation of political ideologies of LLMs. Moreover, stability has practical implications for controlled generation and model alignment: interventions such as debiasing or ideology reversal should explicitly account for stance stability. Our empirical analyses reveal that when models are prompted or fine-tuned to adopt the opposite ideology, unstable topic stances are more likely to change, whereas stable ones resist modification. Thus, treating stability as a moderating factor provides a principled foundation for understanding, evaluating, and guiding interventions in politically sensitive model behavior.

End-to-end Document Key Information Extraction models require a lot of compute and labeled data to perform well on real datasets. This is particularly challenging for low-resource languages like Bangla where domain-specific multimodal document datasets are scarcely available. In this paper, we have introduced SynthNID, a system to generate domain-specific document image data for training OCR-less end-to-end Key Information Extraction systems. We show the generated data improves the performance of the extraction model on real datasets and the system is easily extendable to generate other types of scanned documents for a wide range of document understanding tasks. The code for generating synthetic data is available at https://github.com/dv66/synthnid
