The Great Game

IIPM PUBLICATION

For those familiar with the Great Game, it is basically the rise and rise of China that has convinced the United States that India must be wooed and befriended and encouraged to emerge as a global ‘balancing’ power as a counterweight against the growing strategic ‘competition’ from China. For sure, China will threaten the American dominance of Asia and the world for decades to come. Who better than a militarily, economically, demographically and technologically powerful India to counter the Chinese ‘menace’? Strategic analysts ranging from C. Raja Mohan and C. Uday Bhaskar to K. Subramanyam caution that India must pursue its own national interest and not succumb to the temptation of picking up fights with China on behalf of the United States. Just as the US continues to support Pakistan, India, too, needs to engage with China rather than confront the dragon.

Yet, these cautionary signals apart, there is absolutely no doubt that Manmohan Singh and George Bush have “created history.” After decades of inward looking isolation, missed economic opportunities and the status of a third world wannabe, India is well on its way to becoming a regional super power in its own right. And what about the vociferous protests by the Left ? But that’s the beauty of the Indian democracy that Bush so admires. Isn’t it?!
