Self-Reliance in Defence: From Pragmatic Restraint to Strategic Autonomy
By: Amit Cowshish
Page No : 169-185
Abstract
Resource constraints and commitment to Non-Alignment historically explain India’s limited expenditure on defence. Moreover, it remained so despite the country’s periodic wars with hostile neighbours in 1962, 1965, and 1971. The signing of the Indo-Soviet Treaty of Peace, Friendship and Cooperation in 1971 was an important landmark in India’s quest for self-reliance. It marked the start of the co-production and co-development of varied defence platforms, including through Transfer of Technology (ToT). It is estimated that more than 200 industrial units in India currently have ties with the Russian defence industry for local manufacturing, repair, and maintenance of Russian-origin equipment. The dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 brought home the hard reality of import dependence and geopolitical uncertainty, underscoring the urgent imperative of self-reliance in defence procurement. An important path suggested was to gradually raise the indigenous component in defence procurement. The Kargil war of 1999 came as a reality check. For the past five decades, the country had more or less followed the same lackadaisical policies concerning defence production, Research and Development (R&D), planning, and resource allocation, citing the same reasons such as economic constraints, anodyne threat perceptions, and politicobureaucratic procrastination. Defence production was in the hands of public-sector companies, and defence-related R&D suffered from a lack of funding.The Kargil war was a wake-up call. Concerted policy measures were taken towards raising the level of ‘self-reliance’ in defence procurement in the years following the Kargil war. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in his maiden Independence Day speech on August 15, 2014, from the ramparts of historic Red Fort in Delhi, gave a call for ‘Make in India’. Since then, ‘Atmanirbharta’ has become the mantra underlying various defence policy initiatives, as in many other sectors of the Indian economy. ‘Atmanirbharta’ in defence production is deemed a necessary prerequisite for exercising strategic autonomy. In the true sense of the term, self-reliance in defence implies the ability to use one’s own resources and capabilities to design and develop cutting edge technologies, remain ahead of one’s adversaries in technological advancement and innovation, access raw materials required for defence production, and harness these resources to manufacture state-of-the-art equipment, platforms and weapon systems, including critical components like aeroengines. It also implies ensuring an uninterrupted supply of rare earth elements and critical minerals, such as lithium, cobalt, nickel, graphite, and titanium, all of which are essential for the manufacture of advanced defense systems. The changing nature of warfare, and rapidly increasing role of AI-driven autonomous weapon systems, or ‘killer robots’, has added a new dimension to India’s quest for self-reliance in defence. Judged by this yardstick, there are several notable gains; but import dependence on critical components also remains. It means, there is a lot of catching up to be done. Self-reliance remains a long term project. It is not simply a function of ensuring local manufacturing of defence equipment and maximising the IC in locally manufactured products, if such manufacturing is critically dependent on the import of raw materials, components, assemblies, or technologies. In the end, it is investment in R&D which holds the key to self-reliance in design and the development of major military platforms and weapons which, in turn, guarantees some measure of strategic autonomy.

India’s Trajectory in the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO): Following the ‘SECURE’ Path
By: Madhumita Hazarika Bhagat
Page No : 186-202
Abstract
India joined the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) as a member in 2017, after years of deliberation while maintaining Observer status. The growth of the SCO from a border dispute resolving mechanism, formed in 1996 as the ‘Shanghai Five’, to a consequential and expanding geo-strategic organisation has to be analysed in the evolving global scenario. For India, the SCO presents both a platform of strategic opportunities and a space of complex geopolitical contestations. India’s strategic posture within the SCO has undergone a significant transformation since its entry as a full member in 2017. No longer content with passive participation, India has adopted a more assertive and principled role in shaping the organisation’s agenda. The journey of India in SCO, following the ‘SECURE’ vision and, thereafter, the process of integration and the driving the agenda is the mainstay of this essay.

The Braided Narrative of the Canada-India Relationship
By: Abdul Nafey
Page No : 203-223
Abstract
Canada and India have been working to ‘reset’ their bilateral ties. They agreed upon a ‘new roadmap’ a year ago. The two sides have admittedly made more progress on the ‘new roadmap’ in the last one year than they did in the last two decades combined. What has happened? For some two years, the relationship between the two countries was on a downward spiral. Who is Mike Carney, and why does he find India a potential partner in the unstable, and largely unpredictable, world order? It is a ‘hinge moment’ in Canada’s diplomatic history. The Liberal International Order (LIO), set up after World War II, is gone. In Canada’s worldview, it is the moment of ‘rupture’, not ‘transition’, of the global order. The age of great power arbitrariness has returned. Great powers are out to use integration as a weapon, tariffs as leverage, financial infrastructure as coercion, and supply chains as vulnerabilities. What is likely to be replaced is issue-specific and interest-based coalitions of likeminded countries — more as a plurilateral rather than some new multilateral arrangement. There is great mutual interest for middle powers, like Canada and India, to collaborate in this situation for a rule-based order. Bilateral relations have swiftly progressed beyond the conventional areas of trade, immigration, and nuclear cooperation. Cooperation in critical minerals, AI, investment, high technology collaboration, higher education, space, defence, and maritime security are their new calling. The vision of Viksit Bharat and Build Canada Strong are found to be aligned. Canada claims it has ‘what the world wants’. On its part, India wants to make it the ‘New Level Partnership’. This time, it could really be different as two countries shrug off the baggage of the past half-a-century, and move forward.

Critical Minerals and India: LAC Renewable Energy Shift
By: Sanjay Kumar Pradhan
Page No : 224-240
Abstract
Renewable energy is vital for global low-carbon transition and climate change mitigation; yet its expansion largely depends on a secured supply of critical mineral resources and supply chain resilience. Taking consideration of this vital aspect, collaboration between India and the Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) region counts as a strategic pathway to address this necessity. India aims to reinforce its renewable footprint in the LAC markets, while LAC states seek to leverage their rich mineral resources while expanding domestic renewable energy production capacity. However, both structural and operational challenges limit India- LAC’s deeper engagement. This essay critically examines India-LAC cooperation in the critical minerals used in the renewable sectors, highlighting opportunities and constraints, and strategies to enhance partnerships, thereby assisting renewable energy deployment for a concrete enforcement of the energy transition process.

Lithium Triangle and India’s Energy Transition
By: Aprajita Kashyap
Page No : 1-20
Abstract
As global climate change accelerates, countries face increasing pressure to adopt sustainable energy pathways that reduce carbon emissions while supporting economic growth. For India, the world’s third-largest emitter and a rapidly expanding economy, transitioning to renewable energy and electric mobility is a strategic necessity. Most of the world’s lithium supply is concentrated in the so-called ‘Lithium Triangle,’ which covers Argentina, Bolivia, and Chile. By engaging with this region, India aims to achieve its sustainable energy goals through diversifying sources and building domestic capabilities. This essay, while highlighting the importance of the Lithium Triangle, argues that managing the geopolitics of lithium will be crucial in attaining its clean energy goals, expanding electric mobility, and contributing to global climate efforts.

Abstract
The year 2025 marks the 75th anniversary of India-China diplomatic relations. New Delhi was one of the first countries to recognise the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and establish relations, in 1950. Both sides also share a 3000-year-long historical and civilisational connection. This historical connection is generally perceived as cooperative and non-confrontational. Recently, in a podcast, the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi asserted that, ‘there was no “real history of conflicts” between India and China and for centuries, India and China have learnt from each other and understood one another.’
However, the same cannot be said about the two modern nation states. Since the beginning these bilateral relations have been riddled with complications, mis-interpretations, and assumptions about each other. Beijing has generally formed and enacted its policies and actions towards New Delhi based on its perception of how it is placed in the global order. The role of the USA and Russia have been crucial in determining the course of India-China relations.
The other major factor has been China’s domestic politics and vulnerabilities. Most of the India-China border clashes can be rooted in its domestic political concerns. One of the primary factors driving the 1962 War was the Indian position towards Tibet. And, it would not be farfetched to say that the factors for the Galwan Clashes can be found in the COVID-19 pandemic.
These issues raise the question whether the two major geographical neighbours, economic powerhouses, and nuclear powers, have ever interacted with each other in a truly bilateral form. Does India exist as a stand-alone factor in China’s foreign policy and worldview? The border has been a challenge, but does it not also have the potential to push the relationship to a truly bilateral nature. Every time there has been an assertion over the border from the Chinese side, the cause can be perceived as external.
With this backdrop, the essay below aims to discuss Chinese policy, bilateral as well as global, towards India, especially under Xi Jinping.

Indian Agri-Tech’s Role in Enhancing Food Security in GCC Countries
By: Shubhda Chaudhary
Page No : 39-58
Abstract
The MENA region is highly vulnerable to climate change, with GCC countries facing unique challenges due to their arid climate and reliance on finite resources. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) projects a sea level rise of 29–110 cm by 2100, threatening 24% of coastal GDP and 43 port cities, such as Abu Dhabi, Doha, and Bahrain, which could lose up to 15 km of coastline. The EY MENA Climate Change Readiness Index (CCRI) shows that GCC countries have reduced per capita emissions since 2015, driven by net-zero strategies, carbon capture, and renewables, but adaptation and mitigation strategies vary, with political tensions limiting regional cooperation.
India, with 50% of its workforce in agriculture, is equally vulnerable. From 1901–2018, average temperatures rose 0.7°C, altering growing seasons, with the India Meteorological Department reporting 2025’s February as the hottest in 124 years. India’s agritech sector, valued at a $24 billion opportunity with only 1.5% penetration, offers solutions like precision farming, IoT-enabled irrigation, drones, and heat-tolerant varieties. These innovations can enhance GCC’s local food production, reducing import reliance, critical as food security risks escalate. While specific agri-tech collaborations are not extensively documented in current academic discourse, the India-GCC Joint Action Plan 2024-2028 provides a framework for cooperation in emerging technologies, potentially including agri-tech. The two tables in the Appendix show this. These collaborations are crucial for policy-making, informing strategies for climate-smart agriculture, water-efficient technologies, and transboundary cooperation. Policies could promote joint ventures, incentivise investments in agri-tech, and address non-tariff barriers, enhancing food security and sustainable development. India’s agritech innovations offer significant potential to address GCC’s climate change challenges, with collaborations enhancing food security and informing policy. While specific partnerships are emerging, political and environmental complexities require strategic policy frameworks to maximise impact.

Pacific Island Countries in India’s Indo-Pacific Strategy: Partners or Game Changers?
By: Shubhamitra Das
Page No : 59-76
Abstract
The Pacific Island Countries (PICs) have gained strategic presence in the Indo-Pacific frame of reference in spite of being known as too small and insignificant to play a meaningful role in international politics. Escalating US-China rivalry and its influence in the Pacific has led the stakeholders of the Indo-Pacific to desire a lucrative, ‘free, open, inclusive, prosperous, and a peaceful Indo-Pacific.’The Pacific, comprising the micro states, scattered island countries, along with Australia and New Zealand, are a vast platform for constructive engagement for India. India’s Indo-Pacific strategy intersects with both the Look-to-Act East Policy and ‘extended neighbourhood’ policy. During the Cold War, the Pacific Rim Countries, especially Australia, New Zealand, and the USA (ANZUS), had fortressed the region from the erstwhile USSR. But China had already entered with aid diplomacy and security pacts that are strewn with secrecy, but showcasing its economic interests which have strategic ramifications have intensified competition. This essay focuses on India’s Indo- Pacific strategy, and its Pacific tilt. The PICs have made it evident that size does not matter in international politics, and have emerged both as strategic partners and game changers.

Building India’s Economic Security: Amidst Global Trade, Investment, Currency and Aid Turmoil
By: Subhash Chandra Garg
Page No : 97-112
Abstract
The global economic, trade, aid and financial system is in big turmoil and transition, especially after the US President Donald Trump began dismantling the global trade and aid order. Economic security is multi-dimensional. While the ability to consume goods and services to meet a dignified standard of human needs is the consumption security, investment, trade, and aid security are also very important dimensions of economic security for India. India has been slapped with one of the highest tariffs (50%), with India’s purchase of Russian oil becoming a compounding factor in addition to high tariffs and non-tariff barriers. There does not seem to be a US centric solution in sight as India will not leave its self-imposed redlines on agricultural produce. Diversifying trade to other countries, and increasing domestic consumption might be the better way forward. India is witnessing subdued foreign direct investment flows, and there has been an increasing tendency for foreign portfolio investors to also reduce their investments in India. India had stopped taking foreign aid in the early 2000s, and it may not matter much for the USA to dismantle its aid agency and diplomacy. India remains vulnerable on the foreign exchange front as well. There are important developments in international currency markets with the advent of stablecoins. India needs to alter its attitude towards cryptocurrencies, most specifically stablecoins soon.

India-Pakistan Relations: An Embittered Legacy
By: Yashvardhan K. Sinha
Page No : 113-124
Abstract
It was a typical August evening in 1947 when Indian army officers gathered at the Imperial Gymkhana Club (later Delhi Gymkhana Club) to bid farewell to their British and Pakistani counterparts.1 Conflicting emotions of hope, joy, agony and trepidation swept the gathering. A nation had been torn asunder — India was being partitioned and Pakistan was being carved out. On August 15, at the stroke of the midnight hour, India attained freedom after almost two centuries of colonial subjugation and depredation. However, the seeds of future conflict had been firmly planted, notwithstanding the bonhomie, contrived in some cases, that was displayed at the Gymkhana Club that evening. Many friends and comrades-in-arms would confront each other in battle before the year ran out, and in the ensuing decades. The story of three officers present on that occasion, whose lives and careers would intersect in times to come, is worth recounting. Lt. Col. S.H.F.J. Manekshaw was General Staff Officer 1 (G 1) in the Military Operations Directorate; Maj. Yahya Khan was G2 and Capt. S. K. Sinha was G3 in the same directorate at Army Headquarters.2 Till his Humber came from Peshawar, Yahya would occasionally ride pillion with Sinha in his Norton from the Wellesley Road (Zakir Hussain Marg) Officers Mess to South Block.

Role of Middle Powers in a Polycentric World Order: A Practitioner’s Perspective
By: Anil Trigunayat
Page No : 125-139
Abstract
With the rise of the polycentric world order, the importance of middle powers as crucial players with the ability to influence international governance, resolve disputes, and promote multilateral cooperation has increased. Due to growing geopolitical rivalries, especially the Sino-US rivalry, shrinking confidence in international organisations, and the emergence of issue-based alignments, the changing role of middle powers needs to be explored. This essay demonstrates how nations like South Africa, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, India, Turkiye, the UAE, Qatar and others, utilise economic power, diplomatic action, and strategic autonomy to influence regional and global outcomes. Their participation has increased in peace mediation, as in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine to problems in West Asia. This highlights how middle powers have a stabilising ability even in situations when big powers remain divided. Middle power alliances, such as BRICS plus, QUAD, 12U2, and other trilaterals, which allow these nations to enhance the scope of negotiations and collectively pursue common goals in climate change, development, and technology, are also examined in the article. Their soft power advantages and commitment to multipolarity have enhanced their international status, despite the presence of power rivalries among them. The essay uses India as a distinctive and notable example to examine how middle powers will continue to play a crucial role in maintaining equilibrium, promoting reforms, and fostering cooperative mechanisms in the evolving world order.

Abstract
The recent political developments in Nepal have been unprecedented in the country’s history. Young Nepalis, popularly known as Generation Z or Gen Z, brought the country to a standstill through their intense street protests against corruption. They not only brought down the K.P. Oli government but also chose the former Chief Justice of the country, Sushila Karki, to the position of Prime Minister. This essay attempts to examine the how and why of the protest.

Reorienting India-Nepal Relations for an Aspirational Nepal at the Crossroads of History
By: Atul K. Thakur
Page No : 153-163
Abstract
In the wake of unprecedented political shifts in Nepal and the toughest transition it is confronting as of now, India needs a new prism to view its relationship with its Himalayan neighbour, keeping in mind the past, present, and the future possibilities. In a new democracy, with a deep footprint of active monarchy for about two hundred-forty years, Nepal’s position is uniquely shaped as it offers enough room to look back as much as to look ahead. The broad disillusionment from chronic misgovernance, rampant corruption, and thriving nepotism — added with a gag order of banning social media apps by the KP Oli government followed by a shootout order on the protesting youth (Generation Z or Gen Z) — caused the losses of precious lives (nearly eighty young protesters died, and over five hundred were badly injured) that finally triggered the mass scale nationwide vandalism, targeting party offices, politicians’ houses and symbols of power centres (including Singha Durbar, Parliament Building, Supreme Court), commercial establishments, and the headquarters of Nepal’s leading media group. As the Great Game 2.0 begins in a shaky Nepal, India has to reorient its Nepal policy keeping in view the new challenges at the strategic and economic fronts. This essay focuses broadly on the new realities offered by a new and aspirational Nepal, and the ways to reboot India’s bilateral relations with Nepal

The Trajectory of India-Bangladesh Ties in Post-Hasina Times
By: Amit Ranjan
Page No : 143-157
Abstract
The fall of Sheikh Hasina’s government in Bangladesh has thrown up serious geo-political challenges for India. This essay discusses the underlying causes of the political upheaval in Bangladesh. It recalls and evaluates the development of India-Bangladesh relations during Sheikh Hasina’s rule, during which bilateral relations were marked by several positive developments. Yet, there were important issues, such as water sharing arrangements, which remained unresolved, seemingly to the disadvantage of Bangladesh. A narrative was floated that Sheikh Hasina was being soft towards India, which in turn helped build up an anti-India sentiment among certain sections of Bangladesh’s society. The author assesses that in the short term, the interim government, or the government to be formed post-election in Bangladesh, is unlikely to be sensitive to India’s interests and concerns, in contrast to Sheikh Hasina’s Awami League. However, in the long run, Bangladesh will have to closely engage with India due to the interplay of geography as well as economic and political factors.

Strategic Shifts: India’s Remote War Strategy in Response to Sino-Indian Tensions
By: Dalbir Ahlawat , Shamima Pervin
Page No : 158-175
Abstract
India and China have been embroiled in a prolonged border dispute, marked by differing interpretations of the Line of Actual Control and escalating military pressures. This article examines the strategic implications of the ‘China factor’ on India’s evolving remote warfare strategy, highlighting the urgent need for technological advancements to address security challenges posed by China’s rapid military modernisation and growing influence in the Indian Ocean region. China’s aggressive AI-driven advancements and maritime ambitions underscore the widening power imbalance, prompting India to shift its military strategy from ‘deterrence by denial’ to ‘deterrence by punishment’. The article explores India’s rationale for adopting remote warfare capabilities, emphasising the strategic advantages of drones, AI-enabled systems, and autonomous technologies in enhancing border security, and mitigating risks in hard-to-reach terrains. It discusses India’s efforts to modernise its armed forces through indigenous production, international collaborations, and policy reforms, including the integration of AI in military operations. Challenges such as inconsistent implementation, limited funding, and a lack of comprehensive alignment between national policy and military strategy are critically analysed. The article concludes by recommending measures to strengthen India’s remote warfare capabilities, asserting that bridging these gaps is essential for safeguarding sovereignty, counterbalancing regional adversaries, and asserting India’s role as a major global power.

Abstract
‘Israel-Palestine’ has always been one of the most geopolitically sensitive subjects in global politics. This essay does not primarily treat it as a subfield of international relations and diplomacy, but focuses on the social production of knowledge regarding two distinct entities through India’s de-hyphenated approach to foreign policy. This de-hyphenated approach is part of India’s larger multi-vector foreign policy strategy to engage with international actors, entities, and states in an independent manner.

India-Morocco Cooperation: the Foundations for an Indo-Atlantic Strategic Partnership
By: Kheya Bhattacharya
Page No : 190-199
Abstract
Morocco is located at the confluence of the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. Inhabited by followers of Islam, Christianity and Judaism followers, Morocco has set an example of social stability and harmony. In this essay, I have endeavoured to establish the geo-strategic importance of Morocco, the role it has played in combating international terrorism and countering radicalism as well as the opportunities it offers in other diverse areas. Further, the evolving strategic partnership between India and Morocco through cooperation and collaboration in Food Security, Health, Defence, and Security (including through the participation of the private sector), Culture, and Defence Cooperation — (through capacity building) — has been analysed at length.

India-Nordic Relations: Time for Higher Ambitions
By: Banashri Bose Harrison
Page No : 200-217
Abstract
The five Nordic countries — Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Sweden, and Norway — are amongst the most advanced in the world in terms of economy, technology, innovativeness, and sustainability. They share values of democracy and of people-centric growth policies with India. In this essay, I have drawn a pen picture of these five countries, and described in some detail how their ties with India have developed over recent times, both bilaterally and within the framework set by the India-Nordic Summits. The survey shows that while relations are moving in the right direction in many areas, such as trade and investment, green industrial transition, critical and emerging technologies like AI, 6G, and the blue economy, enormous potential remains to be tapped from the remarkable fit between India’s strengths and development priorities over the next three decades and the capabilities and needs of the Nordic region. Based on these complementarities, I have suggested a set of specific measures which could transform India-Nordic cooperation into a strategic partnership which could produce larger mutual benefits not only for the partners but could also contribute to global goals.

Abstract
The Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) has undergone a profound transformation in Sri Lankan politics, evolving from a revolutionary Marxist-Leninist-Maoist movement vehemently opposed to India into a pragmatic political party. This shift stems from internal reforms, post-civil war realities, and changing geopolitical dynamics in South Asia. Critical issues such as the Indo-Sri Lanka Accord, the Tamil national question, and the JVP’s entry into democratic politics have marked its ideological and strategic evolution. After the end of the civil war, the JVP directed attention to inclusive governance and balanced foreign policy, strengthening ties with India while safeguarding Sri Lanka’s sovereignty. The JVP-NPP coalition’s 2024 electoral victories highlight this pragmatic turn, with economic cooperation, regional stability, and reconciliation efforts shaping a renewed bilateral relationship. These developments redefine JVP’s role, and have broader implications for Sri Lanka’s domestic politics and regional geopolitics.

China-India Relations: Requiring Ballast
By: Raviprasad Narayanan
Page No : 312-328
Abstract
This research essay is on the interplay of narratives with geopolitical alignments considering the China-India bilateral as elucidatory. Three issues influence China-India relations:the boundary dispute stasis, trade issues, and foreign policy decision making vis á vis each other. Adopting a critical tone with thoughtful insights, the essay highlights the lack of frameworks to situate this vital bilateral relationship. In global terms, their populations comprise one-third of humanity and, despite being territorial neighbours, mutual obliviousness is a constant feature. By establishing their differing styles and perceptions of each other, this essay contributes new variables that will add to the growing literature on China-India relations. China with economic ballast has succeeded in creating an aura for itself, making many wary. India, as a different political construct from China, holds promise of economic success, with kaleidoscopic interpretations on every aspect.

Khalistani ‘Doom Loop’ and the Promise of India-Canada Relations
By: Pooja Gopal
Page No : 68-84
Abstract
India-Canada relations have deteriorated in recent months. This essay argues that ‘diaspora politics’ have become entrenched in the Canadian electoral democratic process. The Canadian Sikh diaspora is able to punch above its weight in domestic politics and foreign policy. The Khalistani ‘doom loop’ has ensnared the bilateral relationship between the two countries perceptibly for the long term. Economic, commercial, and cultural relations, however, continue to show promise, and remain unaffected by the current controversy. The need is to firewall the strategic partnership that is mutually rewarding.

India and Western Indian Ocean Regionalism
By: Samir Bhattacharya
Page No : 1-14
Abstract
With the world system moving from a bipolar to a multipolar structure, and the world agenda shifting from narrow high-politics to lowpolitics, there is a need to critically examine the impact of emerging countries on regionalism and the regional systems of the Global South. Uplifted by its economic growth, India is exerting to play a more active role beyond its immediate neighbourhood by developing critical partnerships with regional and extra-regional players. As a result of India’s expanding ties with the Vanilla Island countries, India has recently been accepted as an observer in the Indian Ocean Commission. While France has traditionally dominated this region due to its shared history, China has also been increasingly asserting its position here. Against the backdrop of Chinese presence continuing to shore up as well as the mounting tension between the USA and Iran over the Mozambique Channel, the competition between these powers could spill over into the region and impact the peace, stability, and ongoing constructive cooperation efforts. This essay takes India as a case study, and attempts to determine the impact of India’s assertive policies in the region. By examining the theoretical constructs of regionalism, the paper examines the impact of India’s increasing assertiveness in the region, and its impact on WIO regionalism at a theoretical as well as empirical level.

Attempted Revival of the Khalistan Movement Abroad: Challenges to Indian Diplomacy
By: Kriti M. Shah
Page No : 75-87
Abstract
The paper looks at the Khalistan movement, amidst the recent hunt and arrest of radical preacher Amritpal Singh. It studies how the movement has changed since the campaign for a sovereign Sikh state went global in the 1970s; and what the demand for Khalistan entails today. It studies the role the Sikh diaspora in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and the United States has played; and how recent events, particularly, protests at Indian High Commissions in these countries reflects the ambivalence of India’s ‘allies’ towards the separatists. The paper argues that while the nature of the threat posed by Khalistani separatists is much milder today than it was decades ago, the challenge for the Indian government will be the influence of the Sikh diaspora on foreign politicians and New Delhi’s ability to discredit the movement abroad.

India’s Role and Contribution to Building Global Resilience in Disaster Management
By: Amita Singh
Page No : 88-104
Abstract
In the two decades following the devastating Tsunami of 2004, India has emerged as a global leader not just in having a well-defined structure for mitigating disasters but also in providing humanitarian support to other countries affected by disasters. The Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA) (2005–2010) brought vulnerable communities in disaster zones into key focus of decision making; it also emphasized preparedness (resilience building to enable communities to bounce back faster) as an important area of state responsibility. The Sendai Framework (2015–2030) that followed Hyogo evolved further by indicating that ‘risk identification’ helps timely action. As disasters observe no political boundaries, so disaster management strives to overcome every political and ideological division to cooperate, collaborate, and hand hold affected nations. Resilience building includes a strategy to prevent other nations from succumbing to disasters its impact is never confined to the one victim nation alone but spreads to other nations in different ways.
In the previous decade, India has unswervingly sent relief material as well as shared her experience, expertise, and technology for the longterm resilience building of several countries. The Disaster Management Act 2005 has provided a statutory framework for global resilience building, and the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) as a new team of ‘Samaritan Diplomats’ has helped India in image building, winning trust, and forming alliances.

This goes a long way in strengthening both resilient infrastructure and sustainable projects, such as the ‘Solar Alliance’, and also create sturdy platforms for encountering pandemics like the COVID-19. Disaster Management Diplomacy is a new buzz word as traditional military competitors have now also become competitors in humanitarian interventions — such as India and China in South Asia. While resilience building strategies help a peace building process, they also ensure continuity of supply chains in global business by linking resilience building with Sustainable Development Goals.

Abstract
With the objective of addressing the security concerns of the newly independent countries created after the fall of the Soviet Union, the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) was established in 2001. These countries came to the realization that this cannot be done unilaterally; rather, a multilateral strategy is required to address transnational issues, and that the SCO would facilitate close cooperation with the Central Asian Region (CAR), to promote international trade and regional growth. At the same time, due to the US hegemony, countries like China and Russia sought to legitimate their own internal political systems, and increase interaction with East Asia, Central Asia, and South Asia. In broad terms, the SCO continues to strengthen the regional framework to bring about peace, stability, and prosperity in the region and, in a sense, protect their countries’ strategic interests beyond Central Asia. In this context, this essay makes an effort to analyse the reasons for the SCO’s increasing foot prints in South Asia, and what could be policy options for India. It argues that it is in India’s interest to continue to engage with the SCO as also with its multi-alignment policy to secure its interests in both Central Asia and South Asia.

India-France Ties: 25 Years of a Strategic Partnership
By: Manju Seth
Page No : 222-232
Abstract
India and France share a close and special relationship spanning a wide spectrum of convergences, including in the strategic arena. While diplomatic relations were established in 1947 almost immediately after India’s independence, significantly, the first Strategic Partnership entered into by India was with France, in January 1998. Despite India being harangued and sanctioned by the USA and allies after the nuclear tests at Pokhran in May 1998, it was France that stood out as an abiding friend of India, and the partnership has grown stronger and deeper with every passing year. The Strategic Partnership is underpinned by three main pillars of cooperation and collaboration — Defence, Nuclear, and Space/Aerospace. Each of these have witnessed substantive expansion, and continue to define the unique and diverse ties between the two countries.
The Horizon 2047 document issued after the visit of Prime Minister Modi on 13–14 July 2023 to France, gives the roadmap and vision for the future trajectory of the partnership when the centenary of the bilateral ties, and the fiftieth year of the Strategic Partnership will be commemorated.
The ties have been resilient, and the recent visit of the Prime Minister Modi to France re-emphasised that India and France are in it for the long haul. Given that India and France have, over the years, demonstrated the strength of their almost ideal partnership, sharing a commonality of approach on the many global challenges, including Climate Change, Terrorism, Maritime Security, the Indo-Pacific, etc., the uncertainty pervading the global geo-strategic environment will propel both countries towards ensuring that the Horizon 2047 vision. They will also ensure that other initiatives, like the Solar Alliance, Green Hydrogen, and other innovative digital technology projects (including AI), are implemented. Both countries will align their strategies to safeguard their respective core interests, while ensuring the greater global good, and shaping the global agenda.
This essay reviews and examines the progress made in the last 25 years, and the likely future challenges for the India-France Strategic Partnership given the growing emphasis on the Indo-Pacific, and its emergence as an area of contestation between an increasingly assertive China and the USA. While India and France have a stake in both the Indian Ocean and in the Pacific, their policy of strategic autonomy precludes their aligning completely with the US led endeavours of countering China’s ambitions in the Indo-Pacific. In this context, it is imperative that India and France strengthen cooperation in the Indo-Pacific and, in addition, possibly establish an India-France collaborative mechanism to ensure freedom of navigation and maritime security in the Pacific as also in the Indian Ocean where the threat from China’s activities adversely impacts the interests of both France and India. France has two of its overseas territories/regions in the Indian Ocean — the Mayotte and Reunion Islands — where it maintains a naval base as well as in the Pacific, with the overseas territories of New Caledonia, French Polynesia, Wallis, and Futuna, in which France is a resident power. However, the elements of the France-China relationship are quite different from those of the IndiaChina relationship, and need to be taken cognisance of, going ahead. In the rapidly evolving global environment, it is reiterated that France and India are the best partners for each other in the Indian Ocean and the Indo-Pacific, and the future prognosis is one of optimism.

India and France Bonhomie: Mapping the Contours of a Bilateral Engagement
By: Sheetal Sharma
Page No : 233-253
Abstract
The bilateral relationship between India and France is standing rocksolid on a strong and unshakable foundation. The foundation is built on a convergence of fundamental values that both India and France cherish the values of democracy, freedom, equality, liberty, respect for human rights, and the rule of law. Both India and France are culturally diverse, multicultural as well as functional and vibrant democracies that believe in protecting and proliferating the fundamental values of historical civilizations. The relationship between India and France is very special, close, warm, and multifaceted. The warmth and depth of the relationship between India and France were evident in the visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to France on the official invitation to be the Guest of Honour for the Bastille Day Parade in July 2023.
This essay analyses the contours and significance of the bilateral engagement between India and France. Building upon the latest state visit by the Indian Prime Minister, the essay establishes the historical significance of the Bastille Day Parade for France. It maps the sectors and areas in which India and France have cooperation, and analyses the strength of the collaboration. Finally, the essay analyses how India and France — two important players in global politics — gain strength from each other’s support, and the need for India and France to enhance their partnership to the next level in the future.
