Analyse the three major different views within India about the type of relationship India should have with the United States of America.
It is very difficult to decide exactly what type of relationship India should have with the US. The debate rotates around the three possible strategies : 1. One group of Indian analysts opine that Indian should maintain its aloofness from Washington and focuses upon increasing its own national power. 2. Second thought of opinion advocate a strategy that India should take advantage of US hegemony and the mutual convergences to establish best relations. Opposing the US is a futile strategy and will only hurt India. 3. the Third group of analysis advocate that India should take the lead of developing nations and after some times this coalition would become more powerful and may succeed in weaning the hegemon away through its dominating style. Thus, India needs an appropriate foreign policy to deal with the US.
