India at the International Level
Keywords:
democracy, international, level, government, prestigeAbstract
India's status as the largest democracy in the world and a country that values peace shapes its strategic role in international affairs. India has embraced democracy and non-violence despite its colonial background, and it actively promotes world peace through its participation in institutions like the UN, SAARC, and ASEAN. But India's foreign policy approaches, especially when it comes to dealing with global concerns like economic growth and terrorism, show weaknesses in striking a balance between regional leadership and wider global influence. This article examines India's foreign policy by examining its peacekeeping missions and international affiliations. The results indicate that India remains a significant player in promoting stability and peace in the world because of its dedication to democratic principles and non-violence, which serves as a model for other developing countries.
