India wants to be China's gateway to the West

India is warming up to its northern neighbour. The South Asian country's annual economic report recommends courting investment from China rather than integrating into the country's supply chains. That lays out a way for companies from Shein to BYD to keep selling in Western markets despite rising suspicion towards the People's Republic. Much depends on how the Sino-American trade war plays out.

In the survey for the year ended March released on Monday, India's Chief Economic Adviser V. Anantha Nageswaran laid out the two options for the country to benefit from companies shifting supply chains out of China. He argues that it is more effective to encourage manufacturers from the People's Republic to set up factories in India and export to Western markets than to import China-made parts for assembly and re-export.

Betting on investments rather than low-value imports would help cut New Delhi's $85 billion annual trade deficit with its neighbour. It would also shield India against any future moves by Beijing to restrict exports of critical material.

Ideas floated in the survey do not necessarily translate into policy action. But the push for Chinese direct investment found an advocate in Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Tuesday, the first member of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's cabinet to back the idea. That statement is significant, coming four years after India stepped up scrutiny of investment from its neighbours following a skirmish with Chinese troops. Signs of a thaw are visible elsewhere, too.

Fast-fashion giant Shein, which is gearing up for an initial public offering in London, is partnering with $242 billion Reliance Industries to source merchandise from the world's fifth-largest economy. China's SAIC Motor formed a joint venture with JSW Group in March to build and sell electric cars in India.

Those are still exceptions, though. As of March 2023, 54 foreign direct investment proposals from entities based in China and Hong Kong were awaiting official approval. It's a reminder that parts of the Indian establishment are uncomfortable with opening the floodgates to Chinese capital. Beijing's level of comfort with companies investing in India, especially in strategic industries with potential for technology transfer, is unclear too.

More importantly, the US-China trade war is still in flux, and the upcoming presidential election in November adds to the uncertainty. At the very least, India's economic ambitions might offer a handy blueprint for the road ahead.​
 
Better to side with China. Chinese are more honest and reliable than these Indians. Indians don't want to implement plebiscite on the Kashmir dispute.
India wants to swallow all of South Asia. China is the only hope for the rest of the South Asian countries to safeguard their territorial integrity. China's BRI and CPEC will dash India's hope to gobble up her smaller neighbors.

India’s Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri will visit Beijing on Jan. 26-27 to discuss steps to boost ties with China, as the Asian neighbours revive relations that were strained since a deadly military clash on their disputed frontier in 2020.

New Delhi and Beijing reached a milestone pact in October on lowering military tensions on their Himalayan border and have begun taking baby steps to restore ties following talks between Chinese President Xi Jinping and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Russia.

India’s foreign ministry said on Thursday that Misri’s visit “flows from the agreement at the leadership level to discuss the next steps for India-China relations, including in the political, economic, and people-to-people domains”.

The military and diplomatic tensions sparked by the 2020 clash hurt ties in other areas as India slowed visa approvals for Chinese nationals, banned popular Chinese mobile apps and tightened scrutiny of investments from China.

The world’s most populous nations share a poorly demarcated border which runs along the Himalayas and has been a source of tension for decades, including a brief but bloody war in 1962.

India is not looking to reduce the number of troops along the northern frontier in winter, the country’s army chief said last week, adding that it will review summer deployment based on outcome of talks.​

One more country ready to add itself into the list of Pakistan, SL, Some African country to mortgage it sovereignty for so called economic benefits or from artificial fear of a hypothetical enemy, which is a country which liberated it and resolve all border issues with mutual agreed terms. Some people that country believes that it want sollow it. A country which has border issues with all its neighbours and with others with whom even it doesn't share the border will protect it
.Best of luck.

Rest of South Asia is unhygienic. We shall not be able to digest it. We do not have any intension to make those radical people a part of our nation. They are liability. Let them be swallowed by China.
 
Not more unhygienic than a country that has cow poop wars.


Word unhygienic was used as the post in whose response it was retweeted talked about eating south Asian countries. We have no interest in eating any south Asian nation except Nepal and Bhutan if they are willing to join Indian Union willingly. Nation does not come with only land. It comes with its people. We do not want those liability. They are destined to break and regress. It will happen with them. Why should we accept that liability. Had we had any intension, we would have done it in 1971. They have no future, yet they believe that they are going to do well. Let them enjoy the status what they have achieved with their hard work in 8 and 5 decades respectively.
