The ever dynamic India and USA cooperation: synergise and strategise

The relations between India and US should have been the most dynamic display of readiness of two sovereign states to further the security and foreign policy interest of both the countries. But the actual scenario has not been the same. Since the conclusion of Second World War US has been the leader of the free world and India on the other hand despite economic and regional challenges has remained a democratic system. Indo-US relations have been inconsistent form the time they first came into being. Distance gapped amongst them during the Korean War and again in 1962 during the Sino-Indian war. This relation further tensed when the US tried to subjugate India to halt their military actions against Pakistan during the Bangladesh war. On one hand where India wants America's help for settling Indo-Pakistan tension and establishes it as a greater international player, the Americans wants to create a strong India so that they can facilitate their idea of democracy and secularism in Asia and help to secure multilateral security initiatives in Asia. Some considerable factors which have led to the downward fall in the relations between the two states is the objection of US into making India a de jure nuclear state, lack of reliability Indian analysts have shown in US as supplier of high technology and the constant backing of Pakistan by the US. The following paper shall discuss about the areas where both the countries can fortify and will also suggest solutions to reduce misapprehension among the two countries through bilateral trade.
