NEW DELHI, May 5: Noted Supreme Court Lawyer and Chairman of Kashmir Group, Ashok Bhan said that if Indian aspiration is to be a global leading power, its diplomacy has to be multilayered and multi pronged in order to maximise the partner players and minimise the problems.
“Bharat needs to develop deep national strengths. The political narrative has to be inclusive, the science and modern technology has to be the fundamental foundations for manufacturing and to boost economy of the country has to be based on the doctrine of comfort, trust and international collaborations with comity of progressive nations,” he said while speaking at the executive meeting of Kashmir (Policy and Strategy) Group, here today, in which the members of Strategic community and Diplomats were present as special invitees.
Bhan said that in a polarised and suspicious world, the success of collaboration with larger Nations in the world depends on the pursuit of effective diplomacy. In the era of conflict and climate change, India has the powerful implications for connectivity. The supply chains and logistics have become resilient and redundant. World has witnessed the consequences of tension in the Red Sea and the blocking of the Suez Canal. Derisking is only possible when enough countries come together for their shared enterprise to become serious players, he explained.
“Interestingly many of the recent endeavours are focused on India. The IMEC corridor connects India to Europe and the Atlantic through Arabic peninsula. The INSTC traverses Iran and Russia. To India’s east the trilateral highway can take India all the way to the pacific,” he added.
Bhan said that 2024 elections and its results on June 4th is crucial for determination of the inclusive social equanimity nationally and global stature of the Bharat. “It’s hoped the matured Indian voters shall make an informed decision. India being the largest democracy of the world and people are expected to demonstrate a matured and astute voting pattern and to elect a Government that takes the country forward in its march for eradication of poverty, solution of huge unemployment issues, to build largest manufacturing hub, the Science & technology, collaborative diplomacy, inclusive society, rule of law and pursuit of Constitunalism,” he said.
