The twin doctrines of ‘Act East’ and ‘Made in India’ have been significant contributions of the NDA-II Government’s foreign policy. In order to elevate India’s image as an attractive investment destination and strengthen its economic stature on the world stage, the most noteworthy endeavour has been the launching of the flagship ‘Make in India’ and the expanded umbrella of reforms. In this backdrop, greater emphasis has been laid on collaboration in defence technology, co-development and co-production at a time when the Indian defence sector is at the cusp of an inflexion point.

With diligent management of diplomatic, economic and military resources India has gained respectable status in the international sphere .Even so major determinants of its foreign policy remain unchanged amid continued tension in the neighbourhood though strategic relationship with some big powers has been fast forwarded and soft power diplomacy is by and large successful. It has to fine tune its relation with Pakistan and settle territorial disputes with neighbours. Close rapport with world decision makers is essential.India must also consider its military option which would enhance its deterrence to deal with provocations from neighbours.

This analysis proves that Narendra Modi has responded the contemporary challenges worldwide quite well, though his efforts are misplaced even in his own region i.e. South Asia. In the waters, he has handled the affairs well but obviously seems failed on the land. He has taken pre-emptive measures, broken the ices here and there and given the bold messages that India is now ready to take its global responsibility.

To conclude, the military impasse was a result of China’s hegemonic and expansionist designs in Asia. China has territorial disputes with India. In recent times, has seen uncomfortable with strongly emerging strategic partnership of India with US and Japan. Its ambitions to reorder Asia hierarchically, while relegating position of India and Japan, is leading to its unilateral attempts to alter the status quo in the disputed territorial and maritime boundaries in South Asia, South East Asia and South China Sea.

The emerging triangle between Russia-India-China is being closely watched in the strategic and academic quarters of the West and the three countries involved. This idea was mooted by the then Russian Prime Minister Yevgeny Primakov at a time when India has been internationally isolated after its May 1998, nuclear tests. This was also the time when Russia was facing intense pressure from the West on the issue of human rights violation in Chechnya and on the establishment of true democratic system in Russia.

| Summary/Abstract |
The Indo-French Strategic Partnership has been instrumental in bringing a remarkable turnaround in bilateral relations between New Delhi and Paris. What was hitherto a low-key relationship during the Cold War years, post-1998, India and France have set the momentum to build multidimensional ties of strategic nature and substance. In core areas like defence and security, the partnership has transformed from a clientele relationship to joint collaboration in areas like defence manufacturing, exchange of military doctrines and developing a common understanding on international security issues.
