    India’s Development Assistance and Connectivity Projects in Nepal

    Pulipaka, Sanjay; R, Akshaya Sree N; Harshini, M; R, Deepalakshmi V; Korrapati, Krishi | May 2018
    Abstract
    The study examined primary and secondary resources pertaining to India’s development assistance to Nepal. A thorough analysis of the Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs)/Agreements since the 1950s was conducted, and census data was also clinically examined. Further, important publications, such as book and reports, were studied in detail. A field study was conducted for a more comprehensive understanding of the connectivity projects, which involved interviews of policy-makers, academicians, journalists and other stakeholders in India as well as in Nepal. These interviews were semi-structured and quite often witnessed free-flowing conversation on the subject of connectivity issues in Nepal. A one-day workshop was also organised in Kathmandu, Nepal, which witnessed participation of a wide range of stakeholders. A preliminary report was presented at the workshop, and the suggestions of the participants at the workshop have also been included in the report. This report benefitted immensely from the comments/suggestions of various participants at the workshop. It should be noted that this report avoided a comparative study of India’s development assistance with reference to development assistance provided other emerging powers to Nepal. Such a comparative study would merit a standalone report, as it will have to compare projects which have been implemented in different geographic regions spread over differing time periods.

      Tewari, Meenu; Aziz, Zeba; Cook, Mitchell; Goldar, Amrita; Ray, Indro; Ray, Saon; Roychowdhury, Sahana; Unnikrishnan, Vidhya (Indian Council for Research on International Economic Relations, 2015-08-30)
      India is at the cusp of a major urban transition. In less than twenty years, India’s urban population is expected to nearly double from 377 million today to over 600 million. Indian cities already contribute an estimated two-thirds of India’s GDP, and this number is expected to rise to 75% by 2031. With 70% of all new jobs expected to come from urban areas, accommodating a growing urban workforce ...

      As India seeks to strengthen trade, investment, and other forms of economic cooperation with the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN), Myanmar is an essential strategic partner, since it is the only ASEAN nation with which India shares both land and maritime borders. As a ‘gateway’ to South East Asia, Myanmar is also vital in terms of economic development for India’s North East Region ...
