India and China: Partners in Growth

There is often talk about India and China confronting each other. The incident of 1962 border war and subsequent Chinese foreign policy thrust to aid and abate India's detractors primarily lay at the back of all such hypotheses.
India has been consistent. Be it epoch of extreme hostility or a thaw as it is now, India has held positive approach. It has never tried to fish in the troubled water. Even in the matter of Tibet issue, which, for most part the Chinese mandarine looked with suspicion, India maintained its stand. So is the case of Taiwan. Even when China employed its gun boat policy , India has re,mained placidly positive. It is not weak in any respoct in power projection that included the military might. China as much as India will do better to cooperate rather than target their guns. Nuclear issue as it comes before China as a member ofthe Nuclear Supplier Group shall give an opportunity to provve its diplomatic maturity. It should know for sure that the India nation was not going to be stopped.
