Indo-Pacific Significance: A Study on Geopolitical Impact on India and China

Abstract

Today, Indo-Pacific is a buzzword interpreted differently in its outlook or vision papers by different countries. For its vision for a stable Indo-Pacific, India will need to manage its relations with China and Japan. Global economic growth engines have moved to Asia, first to the Asia-Pacific and now to the Indo-Pacific which includes South Asia. One might argue that the natural evolution of trade, investment and energy flows favours the broader Indo-Pacific definition of Asia and the Asia-Pacific as opposed to the narrower confines. This study focuses on the importance of indo-pacific region. These issues are mostly geopolitical in nature such as dominance over the region. For analyzing this paper, we mostly relied on secondary data which was collected through different books, journals, authentic internet sources, grey literatures and websites. The paper tries to highlights on how to minimize the strategic challenges which India is facing presently. This research will be useful for scholars and academicians, foreign policy, decision-makers, security, and strategic influence on frontiers.
