Summary/Abstract |
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 |
Despite huge hydropower potential Nepal is not able to generate enough power. Nepal has progressed to surplus power generation but still, their potentials are highly underutilized. Energy security is the crux of developing the economy. Hydroelectric power cooperation can be significant for economic development and a sustainable future. But historical mistrust, party politics in Nepal, etc. are creating uneasiness in the relationship. Increasing understanding and political will on both sides will be helpful in resolving the issues. The power trade of surplus electricity would not only make the region’s power- secure but also more regionally integrated.

Summary/Abstract |
The Pacific Island countries have received renewed attention from the major powers like China and the US as well her allies. In view of the strategic, political and economic significance of these countries, the region may witness a new contestation for strategic influence between major powers. In this background, India too has stepped up its engagement with PICS at bilateral, regional and global levels. India’s engagement with PICs is in tune with the core element of her foreign policy like Act East, South- South Cooperation, and development partnership based on transparency, inclusiveness and needs of the recipients. In a way India’s engagement with PICs is both benign and development oriented.
