Despite multiple socio-economic engagements, both the countries stand juxtaposed on various international and regional issues. This age of mistrust and rivalry started after the emergence of Tibetan Revolution. But, for centuries, India and China shared friendly and cooperative relations. The religious and economic ties between India and China stretched back to the First Century AD, when trade and pilgrimages was flourishing through the ancient Silk Road Corridor. Various Buddhist monks travelled to China to spread the message of Buddhism whereas, hundreds of Chinese pilgrims travelled to India and studied Buddhism in Nalanda University. These ancient ties even continued to thrive during the middle, modern and colonial eras. After independence, these age-old relations developed further, when India offered its unconditional support to Chinese freedom struggle and extended its diplomatic reorganization to China. However, this ancient relationonly lasted up to the beginning of Tibetan uprising of 1959 and started shrinking after the emergence of Tibetan crisis.1 NUCLEAR SUPPLIER GROUP AND INDIA’S MEMBERSHIP Nuclear Supplier Group was formed as result of India’s first Nuclear Test ‘Smiling Buddha’ conducted in Pokharan in 1974. It is a group of nuclear supplier countries that seeks to prevent nuclear proliferation by way of controlling the export of 1 Prof. P. Lazarus &SamrajSibaramBadatya, Fa Xian to Panchsheel: India-China Relations in the age of Page | - 8 - Friendship and Cooperation, (WORLD FOCUS), <http://www.worldfocus.in/articles/india-and-china- relations/fa-xian-to-panchsheel-india-china-relations-in-the-age-of-friendship-and-cooperation/>, accessed on 21 Nov, 2018. ISSN: 2581-6349 materials, equipment and technology that can be used in the manufacturing of the nuclear weapons. It was formed with an objective of averting the proliferation of nuclear weapons and to combat nuclear terrorism. India applied for NSG membership in 2016. NSG membership is important to India as it will increase India’s access to state-of-the-art technology from the other members of the group. Increased access to technology and being allowed to produce nuclear weapon programs will eventually give a boost to Make in India program. While most of the members of the 48-member group backed India’s membership, China opposed India’s membership on the ground that India is not a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. NPT is an international treaty, which came into force in 1970 with an objective of preventing the spread of nuclear weapons and weapons technology.2This has made India’s entry to the NSG difficult because NSG works on the principle of consensus. However, India’s stand regarding NSG is that it is not a non-proliferation but an export control mechanism. India contends that NPT membership is not an essential condition for NSG membership as in the case of France which became a member of Nuclear Suppliers Group without being a signatory to NPT. Most importantly, it can be said that India’s desire to acquire NSG membership may be the perceived international status that members of NSG enjoy. This status denotes the level of advancement of the strategic technical developments of a country, that it can supply controlled items and its governance capacity to administer complex trade controls. Also, India is trying to secure a permanent seat of the United Nations Security Council where all the 5 permanents are NSG members. Thus, NSG membership will further strengthen India’s claim for the permanent seat. SOUTH CHINA SEA CONFLICT South China Sea has often been the second Middle East because of its rich reserves of oil and natural gas. India is not directly involved in the dispute but India’s involvement in South China Sea is in the ‘Offensive-Defence Strategy’ in the foreign policy. India has legitimate security concerns with China because any military dispute in South China Sea will have direct consequences on the Indian Ocean region. India is Page | - 9 - 2SreeResmi S, Nuclear Supplier Group and India’s Membership, https://www.clearias.com/nuclear- supplier-group-nsg-and-indias-membership/ accessed on 21 Nov, 2018 ISSN: 2581-6349 in the favour of the settlement of the dispute through bilateral means. But India’s economic, maritime and strategic interests demand the freedom of passage through South China Sea. If China gains control over the South China Sea region it will directly affect the world trade practices. From geographical perspective, South China Sea connects Indian Ocean to the East China Sea through the Strait of Malacca, one of the busiest sea lanes in the world. Up to 97 percent of India’s total international trade volume is sea-borne, half of which, passes through the straits. In addition, ASEAN constitutes one of India’s largest trade partners, with total trade valued at $71 billion in 2016/2017.3 Energy is another component of India’s interest in the SCS.

    i Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative The Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI) is an independent, non-profit, non-partisan, international non-governmental organisation, working for the practical realisation of human rights in the countries of the Commonwealth. In 1987, several Commonwealth professional associations founded CHRI, with the conviction that there was little focus on the issues of human rights within the Commonwealth although the organisation provided member countries a shared set of values and legal principles from which to work. CHRI’s objectives are to promote awareness of and adherence to the Commonwealth Harare Principles, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other internationally recognised human rights instruments, as well as domestic instruments supporting human rights in Commonwealth member states. Through reports and periodic investigations, CHRI continually draws attention to progress and setbacks to human rights in Commonwealth countries. In advocating for approaches and measures to prevent human rights abuses, CHRI addresses the Commonwealth Secretariat, member Governments and civil society associations. Through its public education programmes, policy dialogues, comparative research, advocacy and networking, CHRI’s approach throughout is to act as a catalyst around its priority issues. CHRI is headquartered in New Delhi, India, and has offices in London, UK and Accra, Ghana. International Advisory Commission: Yashpal Ghai - Chairperson.

    POLITICS AND SOCIETY BETWEEN ELECTIONS 2019 1 CENTRECENTRE FORFOR REGIONALREGIONAL POLITICALPOLITICAL ECONOMYECONOMY About Azim Premji University’s Work on Regional Political Economy The Centre for Regional Political Economy (CRPE) is a research centre at Azim Premji University. Its key objectives are to facilitate theoretical and empirical inquiry in regional political economy through its focus areas: regional politics, regional economics, regional cultures, and regional histories. Overarching ‘national’ narratives, while useful to begin with, can be enriched by taking into account the spatial variation across India and the manifest complexities associated with regional formations. CRPE aims to expand our understanding of the analytical concept of ‘region’ in regional political economy, the methodological alternatives appropriate for explaining regional outcomes, and the processes that generate observed outcomes by drawing from disci- plinary perspectives such as anthropology, economics, history, political science, and sociology.
