- Authors
KHAN, TANVEER AHMAD
- Abstract
The growing influence of China in South Asia has caused concern for India. China's alliance with Pakistan, India's arch-rival, is troubling for New Delhi. Additionally, China's flagship Belt and Road Initiative program, the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), is seen as a geopolitical move to limit India's influence in the subcontinent. In response, New Delhi has adopted a comprehensive strategy to counter China's challenge in India's immediate vicinity. This includes a broad set of policy measures, such as reaching out to neighboring countries, embracing like-minded allies and partners, and adopting a tit-for- tat approach to counter China's moves. The article argues that New Delhi's strategy is aimed at containing China's influence in the region while also safeguarding India's own interests.
