In the domain of international arena, the aspect of relationship aspect is very significant. Relationship refers to the bonds of dependent or reciprocal relations. (Martin Pierre Marie-1986). So far as international politics is concerned, like all politics, it is a struggle for power. Whatever may be the ultimate aims of international politics, the power is always the immediate aim. (Morgenthau, Hans J., 1985). On the other hand, International Relations include the study of all human interactions across national borders and factors that affect those interactions.

| Summary/Abstract |
China has pulled into its orbit relatively poor South Asian countries like Bangladesh, Myanmar and Nepal by extensive economic support and investments in infrastructure development. Bangladesh and Myanmar are important for accessing strategically located ports which will provide it alternative sea routes for unimpeded trade and commerce. Nepal is important to tighten its border with Tibet. Moreover, it is a cleverly planned strategy to access their market, supply military equipment and eclipse India’s influence in these countries. But it is no cakewalk as big international powers are countering China through diplomatic and economic means to constrict its growing influence in South Asia. The local communities are averse to its aid and investment as they apprehend that the projects are intended to benefit the investor and endanger their livelihood as well as environment while governments in each of these countries are striving to balance their relationship with big powers.

| Summary/Abstract |
Nepal is strategically located in the Himalayan mountain range and has acting as a buffer between India and China. With the growth of two Asian giants – China and India, Nepal has also gained importance. It is now considered to be a bridge between the two countries instead of being a buffer, as it was considered in the past. The Himalayan region of Nepal has a strategic position between India and China; yet, tension and instability related issues always exist in this region due to security concerns, unresolved territorial disputes and political turmoil in Nepal (Mathou 2005). From China’s view point, Nepal is the main base to provide not only peace and security in Tibet but also provide natural resources.

| Summary/Abstract |
With the rise of China and its growing economic presence in South Asia, the power structure of the region is changing. India’s traditional primacy in the region is challenged by a growing Chinese presence. Both Nepal and Myanmar are very important neighbours for India. Nepal, most strategically located and Myanmar, through which India’s most prestigious project “Act East” passes. Nepal takes pride in its history of never having been colonised and has an important geostrategic position, with India and China on either side. However, contrary to conventional notions of a harmonious diplomatic relationship, there is a sharp difference in the way Nepal and India view each other.

| Summary/Abstract |
In fact, both India and China continue to struggle for the supremacy of the geopolitically sound and strategically important Indian Ocean Rim region (IOR) with a view to surpass each other in this area of sea waters as a major bone of contention between the two hostile neighbour though the thorniest border issue still remains unresolved between them. While Beijing ridicules Indian position with respect to Indian Ocean just not as India’s Ocean, China must also not extend its claim over the entire South China Sea as China’s own Sea and ought to honour this principle of equity as regards its expanding roles in Nepal, Bangladesh and Myanmar besides many other countries scattered around the Indian Ocean Rim.

| Summary/Abstract |
A noteworthy aspect of China’s growing centrality to global politics are the methodologies the country adopts when deepening its influence with smaller countries. Whether they are countries of Africa, South America or Asia, Chinese influence, in economic terms to begin with, is increasing year after year. China’s growing influence is a rather new slant in international geopolitics where the inconsistencies of the past – the Cold War and the two world wars of the 20th century - are now increasingly being replaced by newer expressions, especially the rise of China in economic and strategic terms.

| Summary/Abstract |
China’s strategic engagement with India’s neghbours in South Asia has always been a cause of concern for India. But, it is more so in case of China’s strategic overtures in Pakistan and Nepal, though for opposite reasons. With Pakistan, because India has always experienced tensions and was engaged in four major military confrontations with her. With Nepal, because India and Nepal shared a long close historical, cultural and social ties.

| Summary/Abstract |
China’s engagement with Bangladesh since October 1975 has not been any less than that of its engagement with Pakistan. Sino-Bangladesh relations have been quite close so much so that like Sino-Pakistan relations it also has been termed as “trusted friendship” or “all whether friendship”.1 Bilateral relations between Bangladesh and China have been primarily focussed on trade and defence cooperation alongside cooperation in political, social, cultural and maritime sectors as well.

Nepal, a land-locked country, is fraught with serious problems, in respect of transit to and from the nearest port (ports). It is vulnerable to cross-pressures from the two regional giants—China and India who consider them as each other’s adversaries. But Nepal has been adept at playing one off against the other to maximise support and help from them.

In the changing global order, Geostrategic relations depend on the control over geographic spaces. Geostrategic accounts for the way of political communities attempt to gain command even control over the geographic area. It is a type of foreign policy guided principally by geographical factors as they inform, constrain or affect political and military planning of any region. Geopolitics and geostrategic provide a scientific analysis concerning the global issues of humanity focusing on the social, economic, political, cultural, military, geographical levels and others trying to offer solutions in the solving the rather difficult situations humanity is dealing with it.

With the embracing relations amongst China and Nepal in the Himalayas there is more stir, like foreign policies of global world, in the academic circle. In the uphill of the Himalayas, the outbreak of infrastructure reflects the emerging consolidation of two most ambitious plans in South Asian territory- One, Nepal’s infrastructural development through enhancement over technology, and two, China’s dream project, i.e. ‘Belt Road Initiative’ (BRI). The outcome of the massive earthquake in Nepalese boundaries ends in heavy infrastructural assistance, re-opening border points and re-routing of trans- Himalayas trade route between both the countries.

| Summary/Abstract |
The transition of India’s Look East policy to an Act East policy, since 2018 signalled the symptoms of a strong relationship brewing between India and ASEAN; Diplomats fathomed the beneficial angle of the multilateral ties amongst the nations of the region. They were convinced that the growing relationship between countries of the region could transpire into a huge power orbit steering the economic and strategic demands in a fashion that could alter the contours of politics generating a paradigmatic shift altogether.

| Summary/Abstract |
It is beyond doubt that in the present international sphere China has dramatically expanded its military might and economic development and also it has covered its sphere of influence in the whole Asia in general and Myanmar, Bangladesh and Nepal in particular which has posed a great challenge not only to India but also to the United States. About China, Napoleon had once said: “It is a sleeping giant, let it sleep for if it wakes it would shake the world”. It is not only due to its military might but also economic strength it has brought many nations under its control.

| Summary/Abstract |
With or without China’s grand One Belt One Road (OBOR) initiative, Chinese footsteps in South Asia have been ever increasing-be it in the military context or economic. This has been interpreted as a source of immense concern in India. China’s all weather friendship with Pakistan, tacit support to Pakistan’s proxy wars against India and the construction of the China-Pakistan economic corridor through Pakistan Occupied Kashmir- an integral part of India are just some of the concerns India has with China’s presence in South Asia.
