Since 2001, Afghanistan has provided New Delhi an opportunity to
underline its role as a regional power. In the rapidly evolving
geo-strategic scenario, India was forced to reconstitute and
reassess its policies towards Afghanistan. India-Afghanistan
Cooperation took a leap forward after the defeat of the Taliban and
the installation of an Interim Authority. India's main focus has
been to support the Afghan government and the political process in
the country mandated under the Bonn Agreement of 2001. In the past
decade, India pursued a policy of high-level engagement with
Afghanistan through wide-ranging humanitarian, financial and
infrastructural project assistance, as well as participation in
international efforts aimed at political and economic rebuilding of
Afghanistan. India has growing stakes in peace and stability in
Afghanistan and the 2011 India-Afghanistan Strategic Partnership
Agreement underlines India's commitment to ensure that a positive
momentum in the Indo-Afghanistan ties in maintained. One of the
foremost aims of India's involvement in Afghanistan has been to
assist in building indigenous Afghan capacity and institutions
which encompasses all the sectors of development. This book, apart
from examining the changing trajectory of India's policy towards
Afghanistan, focuses on two particular areas of Indian intervention
in Afghanistan namely Capacity Building and Education. It also
evaluates its importance in strengthening the Delhi-Kabul ties.
Identification of factors that are aiding or blockading the smooth
functioning of these policies, have been the purpose of this
academic pursuit. Attempts have been made to reach out to the
Afghan beneficiaries in both India and Afghanistan, in order to
understand their perspectives, requirements and disgruntlements.
This research underscores that the purpose behind India's
involvement in Afghanistan should not be defeated and thereby
attempts to put forward certain steps and directions that can be
adopted by Indian Government in order to achieve long-lasting
dividends by smooth implementation of India's aid disbursement
policy. As US led North Atlantic Treaty Organization forces prepare
to leave Afghanistan in 2014, India stands at a crossroads as it
remains keen to preserve its interest in Afghanistan. This book
apart from underlying ever-evolving Indian policy in Afghanistan
provides concrete recommendations that can enhance the
effectiveness of ongoing Indo-Afghanistan cooperation.
