2022-08-18 17:31:13 India’s Look West Policy: An Evolving Framework

Despite long historical ties, India’s links to the Gulf countries in the last few decades had come to be defined by the twin factors of energy imports and labour exports.

In 2005 P.M. Manmohan Singh officially argued that "the Gulf region, like South-East and South Asia, is part of our natural economic hinterland. We must pursue closer economic relations with all our neighbours in our wider Asian neighbourhood. India has successfully pursued a Look East policy to come closer to the countries of South-East Asia. We must, similarly, come closer to our western neighbours in the Gulf."

This statement had the elements of the “Look West Policy” which further received momentum and shape through Prime Minister Modi’ trips to Saudi Arabia, UAE, Iran and
Israel since 2014. Open / Comment

Background ( Part 1 )

Relations between the people of Afghanistan and India traces to the Indus Valley Civilisation.

The Durand Line is the 2,430-kilometre International border between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Sir Mortimer Durand had drawn this line in 1893 between Afghanistan and then British India, which later got divided into two countries India and Pakistan in 1947.

The Durand Line cuts through the Pashtun tribal areas and further south through the Balochistan region. It politically divides ethnic Pashtuns, as well as the Baloch and other ethnic groups, who live on both sides of the border in Afghanistan as well as in Pakistan.

India also provided humanitarian aid to then Afghan President Najibullah's government. Following the withdrawal of the Soviet forces, India continued to with humanitarian aid. Open / Comment
