ISAS Turns 20
This year marks a significant milestone for all of us at ISAS. We celebrate the Institute's 20th anniversary. We have planned several exciting initiatives and events during the course of the year to commemorate this momentous occasion. Look out for these announcements on the ISAS website and social media platforms.
We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of ISAS Honorary Fellow and former Visiting Research Professor, Professor Riaz Ul Hassan. On behalf of all of us at ISAS, we extend our heartfelt condolences to Professor Hassan’s family.
India’s relations with its Himalayan neighbour Nepal have seen intense diplomatic engagement under Prime Minister Narendra Modi since he initiated in August 2014 the ‘Neighbourhood First’ policy. What have been the outcomes of this policy? What are the issues that strain mutual ties? What are Nepal’s domestic constraints which affect bilateral relations? What have been the effects of China’s attempts to expand its strategic footprint through its Belt and Road initiative? In this episode, Dr Gyanesh Kudaisya, Associate Professor at ISAS, is joined by ISAS Honorary Fellow Professor S D Muni, who draws upon his recently published book, Dabbling in Diplomacy – Authorised & Otherwise: Recollections of a Non-Career Diplomat, to offer insights into these questions.
