INDIAS MAJORS PROJECTS


12/13

India has built Chabahar Port on the Makran Coast to keep a watchful eyeon Pakistans Gwadar Port on the same coast.

USAs and Indians interests converge to the extent of the utility of this portto check China and Pakistan.

Iran is pursuing a multi-billion dollar railways project which was named"Iran's Eastern Corridor".

It will connect Chabahar port to Central Asia, Afghanistan and Central Iran.

This project would have three branches including Chabahar-IranshahrFahraj County, Chabahar-Iranshahre-Zahedan-Mashahd and Chabahar-Iranshahr-Zahedan-Milak.

India is helping develop the Chabahar port, which will give it access to the oiland gas resources in Iran and the Central Asian states.

This is done by India to compete with the Chinese, who are building Gwadar

Port, in Pakistani Balochistan.

Interests of India in Afghanistan today

Historically India has enjoyed good to excellent cultural and economic

relations with Afghanistan.

Indian movies are reportedly a staple part of the Afghan culture,while Afghan shawls anddry fruits, among other things, come

into India both legally and illegally.

Economically it is a proposed gateway to the oil and mineral rich Central

Asian republics.

Strategically An acti vely pro-Delhi regime in Kabulwould rattle Islamabad

which has traditionally seen Afghanistan as its backyard.
