| Summary/Abstract |
The entire Indian Ocean holds crucial significance for India’s security and economic interests. The recent Chinese strategic and commercial inroads by China in Maldives are part of her larger strategy to expand her strategic influence in the Indo-Pacific region. The Chinese design appears benign in the first impression as it moves from gaining economic dominance toconsolidating strategic influence. India needs to not only strengthen her defence capabilities but also to develop bilateral and multilateral strategic partnership to ensure peace, stability, freedom of navigation and rule based order in the entire Indian Ocean. The bilateral approach towards neighbours needs better understanding of their fragile political landscape and domestic politics.

| Summary/Abstract |
The dissonance between the positions of India’s Nehruvian strategic community and of the Indian strategic establishment, especially regarding the freedom-of-navigation operations the U.S. Navy long has conducted in India’s exclusive economic zone, is rooted in realpolitik considerations, especially China’s rise as a great power, and the difference between international law and politics.

| Summary/Abstract |
National power that determines and sustains national interest is no more exclusively ‘hard’ these days. The dimension of ‘soft’ has been regarded complementary and supplementary to a nation’s power for augmenting its strength and image in the international society. It has been realized that soft power without hard power is meaningless; and hard power without soft power is not effective and enduring. India’s foreign policy strategists have realized this phenomenal change. India, therefore, has been promoting that aspect of its power which is, in other words, called as the ability to attract others towards her and the ability to urge others to perceive a favorable image of India.
