Abstract

In recent years, China has been increasingly seeking to increase its economic and military power. Beijing has also begun to expand its relations with Islamabad, which is deemed as a strategic threat by India. In this regard, India has forge a strategic alliance with the United States as a leverage to mount pressure on China and undermine its power while highlighting its regional isolation. Thus, the main research question raise here is, “What strategy does India adopt to mitigate China's growing threats in South Asia?” The research hypothesis is that in the wake of long-term border disputes and conflicts with China, India always feels threatened by this country's prowess, the modernization of its army, and Beijing's cooperation with Islamabad, as Delhi's most important rival and enemy in South Asia. Therefore, by forging a strategic alliance with Washington, Delhi is taking steps toward neutralizing China's growing power and ultimately controlling and isolating this country in the region, which can help balance the regional power of India with China in South Asia. The findings suggest that India is concerned about the growing economic and military power of China and the expansion of this country's cooperation with Pakistan and its transformation into a dominant Asian power. Hence, to avoid being surrounded by China and Pakistan in the region, Delhi attempts to expand its relations with Washington. These measures are part of India's strategy to ensure deterrence against the China-Pakistan axis and alleviate its concerns in South Asia. A qualitative research method has been used for data analysis in this research.
