Objectives of Indian Engagement in Afghanistan

Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 1

Abstract

In order to understandthe Indian engagement and policies in Afghanistan, it is important to consider some recent elements of regional political history of the recent past. Relations between India and Afghanistan can be traced back to over 2000 years ago. But since 1947, India is always striving to maintain its influence in Afghanistan. India was the only South Asian state to recognize the Communist regime of Afghanistan (CRA) and possessed good relations with this regime from 1979 to 1989. The relations got badly affected due to the outbreak of civil war in Afghanistan and the rise of Taliban in power, due to which India underwent many security threats during this period, like hijacking Indian Airlines flight in 1999. But India supports Afghanistan’s membership in South Asian Association of Regional Cooperation (SAARC) and Afghanistan became the SAARC member in 2008.1 The objectives of India’s engagement in Afghanistan are guided by the proper analysis of its domestic, regional and global interests.
