| Summary/Abstract |
As global geo-politics pivots to East, the emerging scenario offers good prospects as well as tough challenges because both India and the US are competing with each other to steal the show in the East against the backdrop of remarkable economic progress, though the rising expansionist-militarist and assertive policies of China and the discriminatory policies pursued by the US in the region are the some of the serious concerns as regards peace and stability of the region. Being closely connected with the East Asia, India has also been pursuing the region under its Look East Policy since early 1990’s which has now evolved into a comprehensive strategic engagement and robust security architecture. But instead of playing competing roles, both should jointly contribute towards the common cause of promoting peace, prosperity and security of the region.
