  • Indian-Cabinet-On-Sri-Lankan-Civil-War-Dossier.Pdf
    Rajiv Gandhi’s Cabinet 1987 Minister of Home Affairs: Buta Singh Buta Singh has been associated with the Indian National Congress since the time Jawaharlal Nehru, India’s first Prime Minister was in power. He has been a member of Parliament on a number of occasions and is effectively the number 2 in the Government today. Being Home Minister of India, his main priority will be to ensure the internal security of India. Irrespective of what the cabinet decides on Sri Lanka, he has to stive to maintain law and order across India and ensure that the cabinet’s decision doesn’t lead to any uprising. His biggest challenge will be dealing with the southern state of Tamil Nadu. Since the native population of the state and the Sri Lankan separatists share the same background and culture. A lot of people in the state sympathise with the Sri Lankan separatists and therefore any action against them can throw this state up into flames. Maintaining law and order here will be of utmost importance to show the world that India stands united. Minister of External Affairs: P. Shiv Shankar Hailing from the southern state of Andhra Pradesh, Shiv Shankar rose through the ranks of the Congress to become External Affairs minister of India. He will have a key role to play in whatever decision the Indian Cabinet takes regarding the Sri Lankan Civil War. On one hand he will have to prioritize national interests and support whatever is better for the nation’s security. However, he will also have to keep in mind India’s position in the global community and ensure that the Government doesn’t jeopardize relations with any key partners.

  • BRIEF on INDIA-BRUNEI BILATERAL RELATIONS 1. Background
    High Commission of India Brunei Darussalam … BRIEF ON INDIA-BRUNEI BILATERAL RELATIONS 1. Background: Negara Brunei Darussalam, i.e., “State of Brunei - Abode of Peace”, or “Brunei Darussalam”, or simply “Brunei”, is one of the oldest continuing monarchies in the world and one of the few executive ones. Its earliest known history dates back to 6th century, when Brunei was called “Puni” (possibly a distortion of the Sanskrit “Baruni”), or “Poli”. Brunei, then a Hindu-Buddhist kingdom, had linkages with the famed Sri Vijaya and Majapahit empires of the region, as well as with China. In the late 14th century, Brunei converted into an Islamic Sultanate when its ruler, Awang Alak Betatar, married a Muslim Johore princess from Malacca, and embraced Islam to become Brunei’s first Sultan – Mohammed Shah. Malay customs, rituals and culture have much of Indian-Hindu origin. 2. The contacts between India and Brunei have historical and cultural roots as extension of India’s relations with peninsular Malaysia and the Indonesian Island. Political 3 The heart of the relationship: The main elements binding the two countries are: (i) Brunei being an important source of crude oil for India and its contribution to our energy security; (ii) Brunei’s role as an important ASEAN country gained prominence with the hosting of 11th ASEAN-India Summit and 8th East Asia Summit in Brunei Darussalam on 10 October 2013 which was attended by the Prime Minister of India; Dr Manmohan Singh; (iii) Brunei was the Country Coordinator for India- ASEAN from 2012 to 2015; and (iv) Brunei has an 11,500-strong Indian community.
