Afghanistan: India’s gateway to Central Asia / Joshi, Nirmala   Journal Article
Joshi, Nirmala Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract India’s neighbourhood in its western part is in a state of flux. A new geopolitical situation is emerging in the wake of withdrawal of ISAF forces from Afghanistan, whose contours are not clear. Whatever be its shape, it will have ramifications on security, strategic, political and economic interests of India and other stake holders in the region’s stability and peace. Afghanistan has undergone political transition with President Ashraf Ghani assuming the Presidency. Hopefully the power sharing deal between President Ghani and Dr Abdullah Abdullah is in the interest of the country’s political future, and if not disrupted by forces inimical to democracy. All the stake holders in peace and stability in Afghanistan should support President Ghani’s efforts to consolidate democracy. At the same time insurgency has provrd to be a resilient force. The recent violent events in Kabul and elsewhere indicate that insurgency is alive and active. If past experience is anything to go by, it is not easy to wipe out insurgency, unless their financial and other supports are plugged. The future role of residual International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) is still not clear. In short, the region is heading towards uncertainty

Environmental issues in Central Asia and regional co-operation: a case study of the Aral Sea / Joshi, Nirmala   Journal Article
Joshi, Nirmala Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Environmental security has become an integral component of human security. An ecological balance is essential for people to be able to lead a normal and a healthy life. Today the issue to lead a normal life has acquired global significance and nations are discussing climate change, global warming and its likely impact on human beings, food security and biodiversity. In this regard the Central Asian States (CAS) are no exception. Since independence these States have been grappling with several issues of concerns to them. Among the environmental issues of Central Asia the most catastrophic one is the desiccation of the Aral Sea, which has now shrunk to dangerous proportions causing enormous socio-economic and health problems. At the crux of this issue is water and its inefficient management. Water management problems are also at the centre of regional politics and tensions. The Aral Sea basin encompasses all the CAS and Afghanistan. A solution to this grave problem has to be, therefore, found in a collective and a collaborative manner before it becomes worse. Is such a co-operation possible? The article examines the status of the Aral Sea and explores the possibility of a cooperative approach.

India’s Role in the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation / Joshi, Nirmala   Journal Article
Joshi, Nirmala Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) comprises four Central Asian Republics (CARs), namely Kazakhastan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan; Russia; China; India and; Pakistan. Russia and China are contiguous to Central Asia. India does not have a direct land boundary with the CARs. In Indian strategic thinking CARs are part of its extended neighbourhood. The Russian Federation and the People’s Republic of China have already established a strong presence in the Region and have initiated mega projects. It is an opportunity as well as a challenge for India to carve out a niche for itself in a Region that is of vital importance to it. The article explores the significance of regional grouping as well as India’s ability to play an effective role.

India–Russia relations in a changing Eurasian perspective / Joshi, Nirmala ; Sharma, Raj Kumar   Journal Article
Joshi, Nirmala Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article examines India–Russia relations after the year 2010, as it was in this year that former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev described India–Russia relationship as ‘Privileged Strategic Partnership’ during his New Delhi visit. The article argues that India–Russia relations remain steady in multilateral and bilateral context but some strains have come up in regional context of their relationship, mainly pertaining to Pakistan and Afghanistan. However, since India and Russia are keen to preserve their time-honoured relationship, these issues can be overcome through enhanced interaction in forums such as Brazil–Russia–India–China–South Africa (BRICS) and Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO).

Russia – China partnership: cooperation or competition? / Joshi, Nirmala   Journal Article
Joshi, Nirmala Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The huge Eurasian landmass began to attract world attention after the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991. The Eurasian landmass is not only a vast storehouse of natural resources and precious minerals, but importantly two potential leading powers; the Russian Federation and the Peoples Republic of China are also located in Eurasia. Today, Eurasia is a witness to ongoing interplay of cooperative and competitive tendencies among the powers. A predominant factor of present day Eurasian politics is the strong partnership between former rivals; Russia and China. The partnership has elicited divergent views both at the official and non-official levels. The article attempts to understand the evolving engagement between Russia and China in terms of cooperation and competition.

Strategic significance of chabahar for india and the region / Joshi, Nirmala   Journal Article
Joshi, Nirmala Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract As the globalising trend of the twenty first century gained a new momentum with trade and commerce and economic engagement among nations, the issue of connectivity projects also moved to the centre stage of international politics. What gave a further stimulus to connectivity projects was the opening of the vast Eurasian landmass after the break-up of the Soviet Union in 1991. The Eurasian space is extremely rich in natural resources and vital minerals, but the Eurasian landmass is landlocked. Eurasian region’s landlocked status spurred the construction of overland transport corridors in order to secure and if possible, to control the natural resources. The opening of this region also resulted in the reinvention of the British geographer Halford Mackinder’s theory of “Heartland of Eurasia” and the “Pivot of History”. In the process the world witnessed an evolving interplay of economics and geopolitics in Eurasia both by the developed and developing countries. In this context the connectivity issue acquired immense significance. It was one of the key issues on the agenda of those powers involved in Eurasia.
