摘要:The OBOR project is likey to have far reaching implications on South Asian politics, economy and security. China has been engaging in the region through various economic and development projects for last decades. But, OBOR touches one of the sensitive issues between India and Pakistan-Kashmir. This has irked India.Growing bilateral trade investments and development related connectivity projects in India's neighbourhood have been popularly dubbed as China's 'String of Pearl Strtegy'aimed to contract India's sphere of influence in the region. There is a deficit of trust between emerging India and rising China about their interests and intentions.Many observers however, view OBOR as a game changer at least in South Asia, where this would necessitate re-alignment and re-balancing. But, how does India perceive this project is a matter of serious concern that would shape the nature of implications on South Asia? China can play a constructive role by reconciling its grand strategy with national interests of South Asian countries in order to minimize the adverse of OBOR on the peace and security of the region.This seminar reviews two emprical cases of Indo-Pak border trade in Jammu and Kashmir region and would strongly advocates Confidence Building Measures (CBM)as the only way forward for China and India.
