Summary/Abstract |
The strategic scenario for India in the region is altering like never before with the One Belt One Road (OBOR) project running through Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) in form of China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). Without India even geographically moving an inch in the Kashmir region, the circumstances of geo-politics around it have seriously modified in the negative. These developments for a number of reasons are alarming as they are against the Indian strategic and core interests.

CentreforlandwarfarestudiesvictorythroughvisioncLAWsChina’s Great Game in the Gulf: Implications for IndiaManjari SinghAbstractChinese interaction with the Gulf started under Deng Xiaoping when its economy was opened and Beijing felt that it needs to interact with the outside world. China’s relations with Persian Gulf countries can be divided into three phases: one, wherein it first interacted amicably with the countries in the region in 1978; two, furthering of relations due to Chinese thirst for energy security and economic investments through BRI; and three, China’s extra-economic or strategic footprints in the Gulf. It is the last phase that will have some implications for India, thus is of much interest globally and in particular for New Delhi which has huge stakes in the region based on its own energy security, human security due to its 9.5-10 million strong diaspora and economic and trade investments. Therefore, the article argues that New Delhi should be watchful of Chinese intent with regard to the Gulf, though as of now it need not worry

Summary/Abstract |
Indo-Pacific, for its economic potential and strategic importance, has surely emerged as the new ‘power zone’ of global political system with the entire world attention focused on it. In the context of belligerent war threats from North Korea, the intensification of geo-political conflicts among dominant players like India, China, Japan and ASEAN members and the ensuing power realignments, the region has become the new theatre of power struggle in Asia.

Summary/Abstract |
From the dawn of history Afghanistan has remained at the centre–stage of peace and conflict in the Indian subcontinent. The ‘Old Silk Route’ formed the crucible of trade, science, spirituality and cross-fertilisation of civilisations, connecting the Indian sub-continent-Central Asia-West Asia and China. On the flip side, many invasions; notably led by Alexander, Tamerlane, Ghauri, Ghaznvi, Babur, staged through Afghanistan into India thus redrawing the sociopolitical landscape of the region. Afghanistan was the fulcrum of the first Great Game of the 19th Century between the British India and the Russian empire. The two great powers realised the futility of subjugating Afghanistan and settled for creating it as a buffer state. The 2nd Great Game in the Eighties (1979-1989) between the US – Saudi Arabia – Pakistan alliance against the Soviet Union legitimised the use of Islamist Jihad as an instrument of state policy. Post the US exit, the Af – Pak region emerged as the epicentre of international terrorism. In the fall of eighties, Pakistan military establishment directed Afghan trained Jihadists to wage a proxy war in Kashmir. The 3rd Great Game began in the wake of 9/11 which saw the ouster of Taliban regime and onset of democracy in Afghanistan, albeit in the middle of a virulent conflict unleashed by Pakistan sponsored Taliban and hosts of other militant groups, including Islamic State of Khorasan Province (ISKP). Talibanistan of Afghanistan or spread of rabid Wahabi – Salafi ideology does not bode well for regional peace and stability.
