| Summary/Abstract |
India shares land and maritime boundaries with eight countries – Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, Maldives, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. Apart from China, which is not situated in South Asia,India is overwhelmingly superior compared to her South Asian neighbours in military and economic terms.India's predominant position in the sub-continent has given rise to a great deal of fear and insecurity among its neighbours creating one of the rare instances in the realist theory that calls for "bandwagoing" rather than balancing behaviour.

| Summary/Abstract |
After a decade long Maoist armed conflict, Nepal witnessed an end to the century old Monarchy thereby making Nepal one of the youngest independent, democratic sovereign states in the world. In this back drop the question arises, is there any rationale behind studying the child recruitment by the Maoist during the decade long Maoist armed conflict in Nepal that systematically began in 1996? However, the answer is in affirmation.

Bhutan has grown enormously from the special relations it has had with India in all facets of its progress as a nation. It has matured in international stature and its sovereignty is altogether recognized. Economically, India has assisted in its all round expansion. Further, India has remained firm on its promise that it will not interfere in the domestic matters of Bhutan. This paper examines and compares international trade in and between the two economies and to draw implications for both the economies.

| Summary/Abstract |
The focus of its relations with China should remain on maintaining peace and tranquillity along the border and expanding economic cooperation. Given Beijing’s recent actions on Pakistan-sponsored terrorism and Indian membership of the NSG, India should respond more assertively on issues like China’s violations of the UN Convention on the Law of the Seas. Despite present bonhomie, Moscow and Beijing have historically had ties clouded by rivalries, tensions and mistrust.

| Summary/Abstract |
India’s foreign policy discussion remains incongruous without the mention of India and Pakistan relation. Since independence, both India and Pakistan has been in logger heads with each other and the origin of their conflict is regarding the Kashmir issue. Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee during his tenure had tried through diplomatic ways and bilateral dialogue to resolve the various issues which hinder their bilateral ties. However, his repeated efforts could not fulfill his aim of developing friendly relations with its immediate neighbours. At present our present Prime Minister Narendra Modi is also trying to carry forward the legacy of Vajpayee with regard to India’s relation with Pakistan.

| Summary/Abstract |
The blockade following adoption of the new constitution stoked up anti Indian sentiment in Nepal .Instability in the Nepalese territory bordering India might encourage other neighbours to use the terrain for activities adversarial to India’s interests. Trade and commercial relation with Nepal will be hampered .Terai region being the conduit for India- Nepal business operations; a troubled Terai will be unfavourable for congenial bilateral relationship as well as regional stability. In view of these factors India cannot maintain passive indifference but engage Nepal strengthening its democratic institutions and dispelling the misperceptions for the benefit of both the countries.

| Summary/Abstract |
Afghanistan’s location at the strategic crossroads between South Asia and Central Asia and South Asia and the West Asia makes the country extremely important for India’s strategic interests in the region. Since, India has friendly ties with Afghanistan and wishes to see a stable democratic government installed in Kabul, and thus, it should be independent from any external interference in Afghan’s affaires.

| Summary/Abstract |
The changing scenarios in the India’s neighbourhood and in the global order over the past decade have made India to take a close look at her national interests. The bipolar world has given way to a non-polar world in which several new powers have emerged. India has to formulate policy options about her foreign and security policies. The policy makers have to think about India’s relations with some of the important countries in her immediate neighbourhood, develop plausible scenarios for each of them, and propose options for consideration by the concern authorities.

| Summary/Abstract |
An integrated South Asia shall always be in the larger interest of India. It shall turn out to be an economic giant and attractive for the external powers of the regional as well as the world. However, delineating a more integrated South Asia is no mean task. In the South Asian context, the centrifuge operated by India-Pakistan relations draws the region apart. India at this juncture need to rethink about implanting the ‘Idea of India’ in the heart and mind of leadership as well as people of the region. Undoubtedly, challenges are there before Mr. Modi to reinforce the ‘Idea of India’ by aligning the goals of ensuring that we are the largest democracy of the world and also a global power to be recon with. Such an endeavour will not be successful if Indian leadership fails to be magnanimous in their thought and actions.

How does one make sense of, understand and interpret India’s foreign policy in general and her neighbourhood policy in particular? While acknowledging that there are indeed many approaches in this regard ranging from the realist and the currently fashionable neo-liberal approach at one extreme to the Marxist one at another (a brand of which even maintains that India’s policy towards the developing world of Asia and Africa is one of domination), in this essay I propose to follow an altogether different route.

The classical Indian treatise, Kautilya’s “Arthashastra” describes use of power and how a person or state’s behavior can be influenced.

Afghanistan has largely been portrayed as a battle field which is replete with the blood of Taliban and innocent people of Afghanistan. It was even being termed as a failed state when it was passing through the phase of struggle under Taliban regime. However, during the last decade Afghanistan has come a long way on the path of reconstruction of its polity, society and economy. Accordingly, it has opened a new world of expectations for its neighbours in terms of trade and commerce.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Bangladesh in June 2015 is believed to have inaugurated a new era of India-Bangladesh relations. For one thing, it almost decisively establishes that Centre-state relations within India will continue to play a very critical role in shaping India's foreign policy.

A change in government in India took place a year back and under the leadership of Narendra Modi the primary focus of the foreign policy of India has been the neighoburhood from the very first day. Engaging the neighbours in South Asia through high level bilateral visits and donating aids for developmental projects to instill confidence in them have been a sin-qua-non for this government.

| Summary/Abstract |
In case of China, present regime is following a cooperative- competitive syndrome through enhanced economic ties, on the one hand; and, collaborating with external powers to manage Chinese assertive influence, on the other hand. With Pakistan main emphasis has been to build goodwill and confidence, along with offensive- defense strategies. With proximate smaller states Modi’s is continuing with the past approach of reconciliation and appeasement towards them. In the extended neighbourhood, India is making efforts to develop broader consensus on macro- global issues, on the one hand; and, asserting its position for attaining appropriate place in the emerging multi-polar global order, on the other hand.
