The Kautilyan Mandala | Can India Redefine Its Neighbourhood Geopolitics?

Описание: India’s foreign policy has always prioritised its immediate neighbourhood, recognising that a stable periphery is vital for national security and development. Under the ‘Neighbourhood First’ policy, India has sought deeper ties with countries like Nepal, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and China. However, despite efforts at collaboration, regional relations often face tensions, contestations, and strategic pushback.

In this exclusive interview with Prof. V. Yoga Jyotsna, former Dean of Social Sciences and Honorary Adjunct Fellow at the National Maritime Foundation. In this discussion, we decode the complexities of India’s neighbourhood diplomacy through the lens of Kautilya’s Mandala Theory. The conversation explores evolving partnerships and regional security dilemmas.

The conversation aims to reflect on how India can recalibrate its regional approach to achieve lasting peace, cooperation, and stability.
