TITLE: CONTEMPORARY CHALLENGES IN INDIA’S FOREIGN POLICY: CHINA’S NEW POSTURE: A CAUSE OF SERIOUS CONCERN

ABSTRACT: India and China have a long history of cultural exchanges and historical ties, but their contemporary relationship has been marked by rivalry and hostility. The recent border clashes in Doklam and Galwan valley have escalated the strategic competition between the two Asian giants. This paper analyses the emerging issues that could affect India’s security and economic interests in the context of Sino-Indian rivalry. It focuses on four key areas: China’s activism in South Asia, China’s power status in the Asian continent, China’s role in the Indo-Pacific region, and China’s relations with other regional powers. It also suggests some policy recommendations for India to deal with these challenges effectively.

KEYWORDS: Sino-Indian rivalry, Border disputes, South Asia, Asian continent  and Indo-Pacific region
