Prime Minister Narendra Modi has too declared that “these shadows of hesitance between the twin nations should be done away through the C’s of candor and convergence.” The American President has too termed the India-US “bilaterals” as the “defining partnership of the century”. It’s a strain of Complex Interdependence which is associated with the “bilateral singularity” of the India-US tryst with a Manifest Destiny argument. Both the nations, in accordance with the IR observers, have lived up to the “Altercating” and a constructivist world view, that the two states of India and America will learn and are being already educated with each other’s culture, Diaspora and the intertwining of the strategic, defense and geo economic considerations prevalent in the world polity.

The interplay of geopolitics and grand strategy influence the international scenario by bringing out collaborations and competitions among the nations. It has been noticed that the partnerships between India and US critically investigate the “new geopolitics” of an emerging multipolarity and the renewed interest in geopolitical narratives in the 2000s and beyond. This phenomenon is well connected with the emerging powers including China and Russia. It is also very much influenced by the noticeable shift of economic power away from the West. Keeping the changing nature of contemporary geopolitics in the background, the article attempts to define the renewed partnerships of India and United States in the 21st Century.

Geography is as much an advantage as it is a problem to cultivate and maintain good relationship with India’s South Asian neighbours. A plethora of territorial,historical ,cultural and ethnic problems have persistently disturbed bilateral relationship. In all these countries there are sections supporting engagement with India and opposing it. Bilateral relationship vacillates between good and worse according to the section that holds the reins of political power though in case of Pakistan influence of the military remains constant.

In the annals of Indian foreign policy, the ‘Look East’ policy, practised for more than two decades, has provided the desired impetus to the country’s Southeast, East Asian and Asia-Pacific neighbourhood, also referred to as its “extended neighbourhood.” With the inauguration of the second tenure of the National Democratic Alliance/NDA government in May 2014, the ‘Look East’ Policy, re-christened ‘Act East’, has assumed new dynamism and vitality. In this respect, Japan has emerged as a fulcrum in India’s policy computations as validated by the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi’s selection of Japan as the first port of call (31 August–3 September 2014) outside the immediate neighbourhood. This visit was reciprocated by the Japanese Premier, Shinzo Abe in December 2015.

The disintegration of USSR was an important incident in international politics; it changed the structure of international relations in the 1990s. This dramatic event also changed the scenario of the international politics at the global level. It was this event that ended the system of Cold War military blocs and the bipolar world order in international relations, which had created rivalry and competition between the two blocs. After that, the former USSR’s allies, especially the Third World countries, reoriented their policies to suit the Western model of globalization led by the US.

India has to play a central role in turning the 21st century as Asian Century by strengthening its relations not only with its neighbouring and other Asian counties but also with global political and economic powers in a ‘grow together’ atmosphere without compromising its strategic interests in balancing the resurgent China and hostile Pakistan. In this backdrop, it now depends almost entirely on how India plays its cards to nurture its relationship with the US to play a meaningful role at the global arena.

Indian economy has entered in the 25th year of liberalization in year 2016. “In 1991, India was infamous as the world’s biggest beggar, a bottomless pit for foreign aid. It soaked up 40% of the funds of the International Development Association (IDA), the soft-loan window of the World Bank. Today, India is as much a donor as a recipient. It is still a substantial aid recipient in gross terms. But the inflow is barely half-a-billion dollars net of debt service.

| Summary/Abstract |
In fact, several recent developments in the upcoming international scenario have ushered into important changes in India’s foreign policy structure under PM Modi which have led to forge New Delhi’s closer relations with US, Australia, Japan and other major western powers. Evidently, that manifests a more pragmatic interest-oriented foreign policy of the country with a view to make India a self-sustaining economic power with sociopolitical stability and potentially sound security structure. Although it has prompted to pursue proAmerican stand on all intenational issues in the recent past, yet this shift in Indian foreign policy has not yet materialised into the US fulfilling India’s long pending demand to force Pakistan to stop exporting cross-border terrorism into the country and restraining China’s anti-Indian activities with likely formation of BeijingIslamabad unholy axis against New Delhi, besides securing a permanent seat for India in the UN Security Council.

Arms sales have become, more than ever before, a crucial dimension of world politics. They are now major strands in the warp and woof of international affairs. Arms sales are far more than an economic occurrence, a military relationship, or an arms control challenge-arms sales are foreign policy writ large.

| Summary/Abstract |
India had been virtually driven to the wall in the wake of yet another terrorist attack on Indian army base in Uri. It has revived the memories of the Kaluchak and Pathankot attacks, and, 26/11. As India was caught unaware, it was probably believed by the government in power that an absolute majority in the Parliament and, after a stern warning after the Pathankot attack, Pakistan would probably not attempt any other mischief. While addressing a rally in Kerala, Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated that India will neither forget nor forgive the enormity of the Uri attack. This was also further followed by External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj’s evocative speech at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA). However, the surgical strikes were unexpected given the policy of strategic restraint that India had followed in the past and indeed it was a resolute decision.

| Summary/Abstract |
Recently there was much flurry both in the media as well as in the corridors of power in New Delhi regarding India’s bid for the membership of the Nuclear Suppliers Group which was holding a plenary session in Seoul (South Korea).The Prime Minister Narindra Modi, himself led the endeavour by reaching out to different countries to obtain for India ‘the global acceptance as a legitimate nuclear power’ which would enable New Delhi to import nuclear technology and fuel from international market more conveniently. With the explicit backing of the USA, as in the successful attempt of President Bush in 2008 getting a special waiver for India from NSG to do trade in nuclear technology for peaceful purposes, India hoped to achieve a déjà vu by getting a membership of the elite group itself.
