Overview
Understanding regional security is crucial for India's foreign policy, neighborhood first policy, and internal security. It helps analyze challenges and opportunities for regional cooperation and stability, especially in a volatile region like South Asia.
Regional security dynamics refer to the complex interplay of political, economic, social, and military factors that shape the stability and security environment within a specific geographical region. In South Asia, these dynamics are often characterized by historical rivalries, cross-border terrorism, unresolved territorial disputes, and the influence of external powers, impacting the collective peace and development of the member states.
