Hi Mithun

Dont use subheadings just for one statement. You can discuss the statement of the constitutional provision in the intro itself. Never make fragmented answers. there should be natural flow in your discussion.

Rest of the discussion is decent. Give some quotations about what chairman of RS recently said. That will help you.

Combine the 1st two paragraphs to make a better and unified intro. That is a better tactic for presentation in the answer.

Answer is heavily tilted towards China-Pakistan axis and discussion on other aspects as in Nepal, Lanka, Maldives, Bangladesh, Afghanistan are missing. Afghanistan, specially, is in the middle of a geopolitical storm and hence needs special mention in the answer as India is heavily invested in the country.

Better way forward.

You discussed the issues really well in the 1st part of the answer. Specific mentions to each country is the suitable way.
But you failed to discuss one aspect of the question which was “way forward for Indian foreign policy in the region.”
This should have been your 2nd part of the answer. What needs to be done in the foreign policy circle in Delhi on these issues?

Your 1st page is decent for the start but your second half of the answer needs better contnet. Reason being the question is not about pros and cons of Globalization but regarding “Globalization will end up making all cultures of the world homogeneous”. So the key word is homogeneous. Your points need to revolve around it and the key arguments after your 1st part would have been regarding Glocalization and Spreading of Indian culture in the West.

Your answer lacks depth and coverage.
It is too China and Pakistan centric while South Asia has other major nations like Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, Nepal, Maldives and Bangladesh.
All of these nations are facing some short of issues which have direct consequences for India be it US Taliban talks, Easter attacks in Lanka, Dokhlam issue in Bhutan and new government in Maldives with China US playing rivalry games in our backward. So you have to focus on all these aspects and mention whether India is ready to face these challenges?

Your way forward discusses largely what needs to be done by these countries but the question specifically asks about what should “India: do.

@.

Rohi please avoid lengthy paragraphs. With your hand writing they do not go well and hence they seem scrambled in little space. Instead use bullet points.
Write as many points as you know but write only 1-2 line about that point. It’s always better to cover more points than to write few points in detail.

Your answer is too China and Pakistan centric while South Asia has other major nations like Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, Nepal, Maldives and Bangladesh which you depicted in the diagram (good use of diagram though).
