0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)

They tend to view the programmes and activities of the SAARC from the point of view of their bilateral problems. Being engaged in a game of one-upmanship, they, quite often, neglect the interests and needs of the region. In the face of the ongoing conflict between the Big Two, the SAARC has failed to function efficiently.

0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The above-mentioned quote was said by the speaker at his state visit to Washington DC in 1969. This quote in the literal sense has no connection with this article.

In terms of geographical size, economic advancement, and political stability, India has been the most powerful country in South Asia.

0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract India has been recognized as one of the leading Indo-Pacific member nations given its vast economic potential, global diplomatic recognition, and powerful strategic rise. India has been also considered as the vital player to realize the much chanted Asian Century dream, however, the enduring Sino-India rivalry has been considered a negative attribute because China has been also the main player of such dream. At the same time, India’s evolving relationship with the US has been also worrying about China, Pakistan, and Russia. In this way, both China and Russia don’t like the US-dominated Indo-Pacific region and, hence, India while facing a dilemma like situation needs to play a balancing role amongst China and the US.

Sarwar, Lubina Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)

The concept of ‘Special relationship’ that was evolved by India through the mechanism of mutual security and foreign policy arrangements through the instrument of treaties failed in the changing political context of Nepal. Though India helped Nepal in political transformation the perceived interventionist behavior of India in the domestic affairs of Nepal has led to Indian foreign policy breakdown in the post-democratic transition period in Nepal. In this context, the paper will examine India’s policy towards Nepal and the reasons responsible for the breakdown of Indian policy in Nepal.

Summary/Abstract For years, the common thread was the freedom struggle, with Mahatma Gandhi as a common inspirational link.
