- W2573683527 abstract "India became the first country outside the Socialist bloc to establish diplomatic relations with Mongolia on December 24, 1955. 2015 marked the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries. Their bilateral relationship received a boost with the first ever visit by an Indian Prime Minister to Ulaanbaatar in May 2015. This visit has not only enhanced India-Mongolia bilateral relationship but also has elevated it from 'comprehensive partnership' to a 'strategic' one.India and Mongolia are two ancient Asian civilisations whose spiritual and cultural bonds go back to antiquity. The recent visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Mongolia, a small but a geo-strategically important country, has changed the spectrum of the existing bilateral relationship. Mongolia has now emerged as a part of India's new Asian outreach, both culturally as well as diplomatically. Question arises whether the Prime Minister's visit was a 'strategic step' to make India's presence felt in East Asia and North East Asia in particular and whether using Buddhism as a cultural and religious linkage would provide the much needed bulwark to realise its strategic vision in future? The answers to these two questions will be discussed in this paper.Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Mongolia on 17 May 2015 attracted wide attention, not only in the electronic and print media but also in political and academic circles. This is so because it was the highest level visit to a country that is generally offthe radar in normal times. However, it is worth noting that Mongolia today is one of the fastest growing economies in the world, with a double-digit growth since 2011 owing to the sudden boom in the mining sector - especially in uranium, gold, coal and copper. The country is listed among the world's top ten in terms of natural resources. The Mongolian economy is expected to triple by 2020 because of coal extraction and the presence of other 'mega-mines'. Some writers even refer to the country as Minegolia!1 It is also relevant to note that mining boom has not resulted in broad-based inclusive growth, which demands sustainable and effective management of the vast natural resources. This is a challenge that Mongolia has been seeking to overcome with external support from countries like India. Modi's visit is a testimony to the fact that India is willing to provide its determined support to Mongolia for the latter's development, both in internal as well as in external affairs. To this end, Modi's visit seems to have been influenced by certain key factors: India's 'Act East' Policy, the China factor, and relevance of Buddhism to promote diplomatic ties. India's position has been elevated as 'third neighbour' by Mongolia as a part of its revised foreign policy perspectives.India's 'Act East' PolicyFor quite some time, there has been a geostrategic dimension to India's engagement with Mongolia. This is more so because Northeast Asia has now become the new regional identity of post-Soviet Mongolia. Earlier, during the Cold War period, Mongolia belonged to the Soviet-led security system that provided it the much needed security assurances. Thus, its identity was linked to that of the Soviet bloc. With the collapse of the Soviet Union, Northeast Asia has become the obvious choice for its new regional identity in order to ensure its political, economic and strategic security. Indeed, the unique positioning of India in the geopolitics of the Asian continent offers a real opportunity to forge mutually advantageous regional cooperation which, in turn, could sustain its eagerness to participate in various regional integration endeavours, including the East Asia Summit.The 1990s saw the beginning of India's emergence as a major regional power of Asia. In fact, this policy can best be described as a strategic shiftin India's vision of the world, and her place in the evolving global economy.2 In this sense, it is essentially more than an external economic policy: it is also a manifestation of the belief that developments in East Asia are of direct consequence to India's security and development. …" @default.
