India’s neighbours often think that the Indian government tries to dominate and interfere in the domestic affairs of the smaller countries of the region. Is this a correct impression?
No, the above stated impression is not correct because India makes effort to manage its neighbours beyond its size and powers.
1. India avoids political instability in its neighbour countries so that outsiders should not take advantage of the region
2. Political stability is utmost need of any state because in the absence of that the outside powers might take advantage of the situation and influence the region
3. India is at centre of South Asia, it shares boundaries with almost all the countries in the region. It has some differences with the states in the region. But India tries to resolve them all by peaceful means
