| Summary/Abstract |
India is making a determined bid to secure its sphere of influence in South Asia and Indian Ocean to counter the growing role of China in the region. This is the biggest challenge on the economic diplomacy front for Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who, rightly, believes that having a good neighbourhood is a universal aspiration. Nowhere is this more evident than in South Asia, which has more the half the world’s poor and one-fourths of its population.
