By: Bhattacharjee, Shibdas.
Publisher: New Delhi: Overseas Press (India), 2017Description: Xv, 774p Bibliography.ISBN: 9789383803187.Subject(s): India -- Foreign relations -- South Asia | South Asia -- Foreign relations -- IndiaDDC classification: 327.54 Summary: This Book is a new approach of perceiving India`s foreign policy towards the neighbouring Nations where the criterion of judgment is India`s strategic and diplomatic strengths as well as weaknesses. It traces the evolution, existing and emerging trends envisaged from the foreign policy doctrine of New Delhi initiated, propagated, practiced and nurtured so far since Independence in case of relationships with the neighbouring Nations and the output of the same considering Indiaacute;s larger national interests. The study unveils real state and actual strength of India sharing land border with China, Pakistan, Myanmar, Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh as well as Indiaacute;s maritime interests and relationships with the Island Nations like Sri Lanka and Maldives which bears great significance and larger implications in safeguarding India`s international border, territorial integrity and maritime interests in different front and frontiers; North, Northeast, Northwest and the South-coastal regions as well as security of rest of the Nation. Here is a comprehensive discussion of the effectiveness of India`s policy as a regional, sub-regional, bilateral and strategic Power in shielding country`s minimum needs within the periphery and harnessing the larger across the sub-continent and beyond both as a military Power and a strategic game-player. The venture exposes the callous approach of India`s foreign policy think-tank and the failure in articulating definite policy towards the neighbouring Nations even after so many decades since Independence and how these have impacted New Delhi`s military and strategic interests in the region and beyond. The Book tries to focus in detail the importance of the SAARC Nations for India`s security, strategic and diplomatic needs and ambitions. At a time when India`s potential youth-brigade is redefining country`s identity, this Book tries to draw the attention of New Delhi`s policy-makers to make necessary course-correction and redefining India.
