Modifying india’s economic diplomacy: Looking place for its trade in central asia

Abstract

Both the regions had historical and civilizational bonds and enjoyed good economic ties. But these economic ties had frozen on account of colonial dynamics for an extended period. With the breakup of Russia, the Central Asia has emerged on the geopolitical landscape. Since then, both India and Central Asia are having good political relations, but the economic ties including trade and investment are at the lowest level despite the launch of several policies. The Modi government took over the reins in 2014.
