In ten cities of North East India, a total of 523 projects costing ¹ 13563 crores are undergoing development, out of which only 121 projects have seen completion (Singh 2022). The development of roads at the national level should be pushed at a quicker pace. While the SASEC road connectivity projects have focused on connectivity between North East India and its neighbours, the bilateral efforts of upgrading and modernising roads- National Highways, Asian Highways are definitely improving the conditions of connectivity in North East India. Better connectivity is crucial for better income and development for the people of North East India. Coordination with neighbouring countries to remove border restrictions, reduce trust deficit and facilitate for a smooth transport movement is essential for further development of NEI.

| Summary/Abstract |
The current situation in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war is particularly grave as Russia continues to threaten the western powers to exercise its nuclear option if they continue providing support to Kyiv. And that makes India’s position very problematic as to how to respond to seek cessation of hostilities between the two belligerents and at the same time continue balancing its equally meaningful good relations with Russia, on the one hand and the US, on the other as both the erstwhile super powers have now become the prominent bete-noires or big opponents in the Moscow-Kyiv continuing war. Thus in the ever degenerating grim scenario where no end to the continuing war looks in sight, the world today stands on a nuclear volcano which may blast any day with the slightest spark set on fire by any nuclear power.

| Summary/Abstract |
It has always been important to utilize power in international relations. Although hard power dominated the primary process for many years, soft power emerged to explain the complex interactions between states and how states use non-coercive means to influence global actors. Late in the twentieth century, Nye promoted the idea of attraction over assertion. “Soft power” has long been an important diplomatic tool in international relations. In recent years, terror attacks, economic crises, mass migrations, climate change, and infectious diseases like COVID-19 are giving it a new meaning, which may explain why some areas have been successful in managing all issues including the epidemic while others have had difficulty. A crucial indicator of how nations, or regions within them, will perform during economic reopening, especially if they are affected by the unbalanced economic situation, mass migration and additional COVID-19 cases.

New Delhi’s strategic foray beyond East Asia and the Indian Ocean, especially into South Pacific region during the last decade, is viewed as a logical extension of India’s “Act East Policy.” Focusing on the 14 Pacific Island nations, commonly known as the Small Island Nations, spread across Micronesia, Melanesia and Polynesia in the Pacific, India is venturing into the region for developmental partnerships. Particularly since 2014, India is garnering close ties with these nations under the “Forum for India Pacific Islands Cooperation” (FIPIC).

| Summary/Abstract |
Considering the present geo-strategic situation, when the world seems to be divided into blocs again due to Russia-Ukraine war, India and South Korea seem to be the virtuous partners in the strategic domain. Both the nations understand that they face serious security challenge from China, and both want Indo-Pacific to remain a neutral region. Hence, they are working meticulously to strengthen their bilateral defence and security collaboration by co-investing, co-developing and co-producing defence equipment and technology. Thus, the roadmap of the strategic partnership between India and South Korea seems to be full of opportunities.

| Summary/Abstract |
The realist explanations surrounding the origins of Russia’s war against Ukraine, specifically John Mearsheimer’s assertion of western responsibility, have sparked controversy. Realism, including its more specific offensive sub-school, presents a wide range of contrasting interpretations, depending on the actors studied and the characteristics attributed to them. Similar to classical realism, structural realism is based on underlying assumptions about human nature. To elucidate these assumptions regarding the behaviour of states and their leaders, the article explores key components of structural theory, such as power differentials, rational interests, and the perception of states as unified actors. It establishes connections between these concepts and fundamental emotions like fear and anger.
