| Summary / Abstract (Note) | As India celebrates the 75th anniversary, it finds itself with the neighbors which are under the influence or are being influenced by our northern neighbor, China. China is trying to or in other words it could be said that it has already surrounded India. An attempt is being made by Beijing to dominate New Delhi from all most all the directions. The Chinese threat will only increase in time. China aspires to surpass the US as the world’s preeminent power. As India rises as a large economy its geopolitical salience as a swing state among the great powers is growing. At the same time, India’s vulnerabilities have also risen on the border with China and the conflict with Pakistan shows no signs of abating. India, therefore, must adopt the strategy of multialignment — deepening ties with the US, building a partnership with Europe, NATO, holding onto the traditional partnership with Russia, and talking to China to resolve bilateral issues. Though New Delhi is very much aware about cunning moves of Beijing and is taking appropriate measures but still lot has to be done. |
