Research Fellow, IDSA, Dr Jagannath Panda’s opinion piece on India’s stance toward China’s revisionist proposals, titled ‘Does India Perceive China as a Revisionist Power?’ was published at the Pacific Forum’s (Honolulu) PacNet Commentary.
Dr Panda argues that New Delhi has supported Chinese-led change that facilitates India’s own progress, while firmly opposing China’s unilateral revisionism in the Indo-Pacific through its development projects. A more determined Indian stance toward China’s revisionist proposals is becoming visible, which is a contrast with the earlier discourse that saw China as a prospective revisionist partner a decade-back.
