| Summary/Abstract |
Mahatma Gandhi referred to Sri Lanka as India's 'daughter state'. True to this metaphoric observation, relations between the two countries have been by-and-large cordial, but occasionally not devoid of irritants. India is Sri Lanka's closest, most important and powerful neighbour. Relations between the two neighbours stretch to more than two millennia in wide-ranging areas-political, economic, socio-cultural and military. Common colonial experience under Britain led both countries to have similar world views, yet certain strategic imperatives and national interests dictated differing policies, at times conflicting with each other. India has always stood by Sri Lanka and time-and-again reiterated its unambiguous support to safeguarding the latter's unity, territorial integrity and sovereignty. Despite witnessing various ups and downs, the bilateral ties between the two countries have never been bad to a level of confrontation. They have in fact matured over a period of time and, in the present context, serve as a model of good neighbourly interaction.

| Summary/Abstract |
India's relations with its neighbours are full of stress and confrontations as it is presumed that India's every neighbouring state seem ready to pose security threat to India. Therefore, India always remained restless in the region to protect its security interests. Moreover, India's posture in South Asia has always supposed to be disturbing among the states in the region. However, India's relations with Sri Lanka have been cordial than any other state in South Asia.

| Summary/Abstract |
In the final analysis, it can be argued that whatever approach India adopts towards Sri Lanka, it will be impossible to alter two realities: the increasing presence of China and the anti-India sentiment which is deep rooted in that country. It should be kept in mind that since the pre-independence period, the Sri Lankans perceive India as wanting to dominate it economically as well as strategically. This feeling has not died down completely over time. Politicians and business communities have exploited these feelings over the years to pursue their selfish interests. And, they will continue to do so in the future too.
Thus, India’s aim is to protect its interests despite Chinese presence on the Island, and to create an atmosphere of interdependence so that the domestic anti-India constituency becomes less effective. For this, India needs to use the tools of both soft and hard power simultaneously. India has exhibited its capability as far as hard power is concerned. There is a growing realisation in Sri Lanka that as far as security assistance at the time of emergency is concerned there can be no better option than India. India’s proximity positions it as a country on which Sri Lanka can rely for immediate assistance. Hence, while Sri Lankan nationalists often oppose Indian economic activities in Sri Lanka, no such opposition was observed in the Island against the security cooperation between the two countries. Unfortunately, India failed to exhibit that it can be a reliable economic partner.

| Summary/Abstract |
India and Sri Lanka, the two very close neighbours, are separated by a narrow stretch of water called Palk Strait. The history and mythology of the two countries are inter- related and the social ties between the two is more than 2,500 years old and both sides have built upon a legacy of intellectual, cultural, religious and linguistic intercourse. Shortly following independence, the major tribulations bedevilling the rapport of both the countries were the question of citizenship of the persons of Indian Origin resident in Sri Lanka, the majority of who had migrated to the Island during the British Period to the Coffee and subsequently tea plantations.

| Summary/Abstract |
It is time for change in South Asia. First, Narendra Modi came to the helm of affairs in India last year, riding on the wave of change. That is now followed by Maithripala Sirisena assuming Presidency in Sri Lanka after defeating his predecessor, Mahinda Rajapaksa in a closely contested election on January 8 this year. In both cases, the electorate catapulted into power men who promised change in all earnestness. In their election campaigns, both leaders pledged to sound the death knell of corruption, nepotism, non-governance, and concentration of power in the hands of a few in their countries. The electrically charged environment in both nations also resonated with assertions of good neighbourly goals. Although only time will tell the true extent of any real change, with the leadership change, a new hope dawns for improvements in India-Sri Lanka relations.
