Nepal In Cauldron Of Security Initiatives

Security policy has become a touchy issue in Nepal. Now, it is enmeshed in the cross pressures of the strategic triangle - India, China and the United States of America (USA). Each of these nations has forwarded rival security initiatives for Nepal and enticing it to join their architectures. Each considers its initiative favourable to cultivate the national interest of Nepal, its sovereignty, autonomy and progress but each fears the others of undermining it. Each has a different zone of perception beyond linearity. Even India and China define Asian moments in their own ways in a less flat world of de-globalisation. India upholds a global liberal frame while China is pursuing Confucian harmony. Their competition is pivoted on a demand for recognition, resources, market and strategic outreach.
