The foreign policy is a vital subject for a country because the increasing demands of the country can’t be fulfilled by itself. Every state has its duty to loss and gain more for these states adopt different policies for their benefit. Foreign policy is somewhat wider than domestic policy, however they have close intimacy.

  • Indo-Nepal Territorial Dispute
    Indo-Nepal Territorial Dispute drishtiias.com/printpdf/indo-nepal-territorial-dispute This article is based on “A line runs through it” which was published in The Indian Express on 27/11/2019. It talks about various narratives of India-Nepal territorial dispute. Recently, anti-India demonstrations were seen on the streets of Nepal over the release of a new political map of India, made after the bifurcation of the state of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) into the Union Territories of J&K and Ladakh. The maps showed Kalapani (at the India-Nepal-China trijunction) to the north and Susta (bordering Bihar) to the south as Indian territory. Reason for Anti-India Sentiments Nepal and India have been bound together since ages through historical, religious, social, cultural, economic and political relations. The relationship is unique in a sense that neither country has allowed a political boundary to interrupt the free movement of people. Nepal is ruled by the Nepal Comunist Party (NCP) which has political leanings towards China. China is also actively pursuing its foriegn policy to decrease India’s influence over Nepal and mark its footprints in the territory of Nepal. 1/5 A major rupture in relations between the two countries occurred in 2015 at the time of the making of the current constitution of Nepal (which replaced the 2007 Interim Constitution). India unsuccessfully tried to pursue Nepal to amicably address the grievances of the Madheshi, Janajati and other disadvantaged groups who constitute the bulk of the Nepalese population. Since then, misunderstandings, real or imaginary, persists between the two countries which have become an advantage to some third party players in Nepal like China.

  • Nepal's New Map - India's Concerns
    Nepal's New Map - India's Concerns Why in news? Nepal's Oli government has passed the constitutional amendment ratifying a change in its map which includes India's territories in Uttarakhand’s Pithoragarh district. What is the dispute over? The new map includes Lipulekh, Kalapani and Limpiyadhura, territories that India controls. [Click here to read on Kalapani territorial issue] The territorial dispute stems from the fact that Nepal claims the land to the east of river Kali, which forms its western border. As per Kathmandu’s understanding, the river originates from Limpiyadhura in the higher Himalayas. It is thus said to give Nepal access to a triangular-shaped land defined by Limpiyadhura-Lipulekh and Kalapani. India opposes the notion and says the origin of the river is much further down (to the east), which reduces Nepal’s territorial demand. What is the recent trigger? While the issue is an old one, it resurfaced in 2019. [Clickhere to know more] In 2019, New Delhi published new political maps to reflect some changes. This was following the decision on 5 August 2019 to reorganise the State of Jammu and Kashmir. Nepal objected to this depiction of disputed territory. How are the responses? In 2000 and 2014, India and Nepal agreed to hold talks about Kalapani and Susta, without much success. [Susta is a disputed village near Bihar on which both India and Nepal stake a claim.] Matters became worse when India’s Defence Minister inaugurated a surfaced road over the Kalapani territory. When Nepal protested, Indian Army Chief, General Naravane, suggested it was at the “behest” of China.

  • Concept of Indian Democracy and the Emerging Challenges to Its Democratic System
    Mukt Shabd Journal ISSN NO : 2347-3150 CONCEPT OF INDIAN DEMOCRACY AND THE EMERGING CHALLENGES TO ITS DEMOCRATIC SYSTEM Sakshi Rathi School of Social Science, IGNOU, New Delhi Abstract: We are all familiar with the idea that democracy is a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Today, the most common form of democracy is representative democracy, in which citizens elect officials to make political decisions, formulate laws, and administer programmes for the public good. Since independence, India has managed to stay on the democratic path in a way unprecedented among states freed from colonialism. Recently, however, the dominance of muscle power of the political candidates, bypassing of democratic deliberations, attacks on religious minorities, frequent riots, and maladministration of the independent institutions, in addition to the pre-existing challenges such as education, economic backwardness, regionalism, corruption- has given rise to claims that India’s democracy is in grave danger. However, equality, good governance, education, decentralization of power, civil society participation can remove these threats to have better democratic setup in India. In this paper, it has been attempted to study and analyse the existing democratic setup in India and suggest necessary reforms in order to ensure a true democracy in India Keywords: Democracy, Challenges, Governance, Corruption, Communalism. Introduction Democracy is not an absolute state but an evolving process, Democracy is a Greek invention, where the ultimate anywhere in the world. India is a young democracy, authority of governance is vested in the common people to stumbling along the path to recognition of majority rule as conform to the will of the people and to serve the interest of something altogether distinct from codified balance its people.
