"Backfire in Nepal: How India Lost The Plot to China" offers a detailed exploration of India's democracy-promotion agenda in Nepal and how it inadvertently benefited China. The book delves into India's strategic decisions in Nepal in 2005, particularly the abolition of the monarchy and the empowerment of former Maoist rebels. These decisions had unintended consequences that ultimately favored China's interests.
The book highlights the historical relationship between Nepal and India, with a special focus on the monarchy. It discusses how successive Nepalese monarchs had played off India against China, and how India's response could have been more compassionate and understanding of Nepal's unique position. The Maoists in Nepal, though initially critical of Indian "expansionism," ultimately had to make practical compromises as they transitioned to a political role.
The author emphasizes the complexities of India's involvement in Nepal, especially when enlisting the support of Western democracies. China, on the other hand, pursued its national interests more straightforwardly. The book argues that India has often misunderstood China's perspective on Nepal, which complicates the challenge of preventing Nepal from becoming further entangled in the Sino-Indian rivalry.
"Backfire in Nepal" provides valuable insights into the dynamics of Nepal's political transition and the role of India and China in shaping its future. It offers a comprehensive analysis of the complexities involved in managing Nepal's position in the context of the Sino-Indian relationship.
