article/opinion/columns/the- key-to-us-india-partnership- defence-and-technology- cooperation-8049285/ - In the intro, mention the emergence of China and India to make the global order multipolar.
- In the body mention that India and the US are the natural partners in countering the common threats, cooperation in various areas such as technology, defence, finance, trade etc.
- You can conclude by mentioning that demographic and economic trends firmly position India as a global force that will have the weight to stride alongside America and China, who would constitute the other two geopolitical — and ideological — poles over the 21st century.
Kindly review my answer and tell me the points of improvement…

Decent attempt.
Introduction is fine.
Areas of cooperation is also well written. You can mention about similar value systems like democracy, secularism etc
Some value addition can be done to substantiate your points – Defence agreements could be mentioned to substantiate(LEMOA, COMCASA etc),
some trade related figures could also be mentioned, in human capital you can talk about Indian manpower in US, people to people contacts, role of diaspora etc
Next part is also fine, most of the points have been covered, cooperation for stability in middle East(I2U2) can also be mentioned.
Next, since this is a 15 marker, some concerns could also be mentioned such as different PoV over Russian invasion, US pullback from Afghan and antagonism with Iran, issues in WTO, removal of India from GSP etc
Conclusion is fine, keep practicing. 🙂

Your concept and understanding is good. But some value addition can be done in the answer.
Introduction is fine, common threat vis-a-vis China is also well articulated.
However, in areas of cooperation between US and India, you can go pointwise..
Defence agreements could be mentioned to substantiate(LEMOA, COMCASA etc), you could also mention about the common vision for Indo-Pacific and cooperation in Quad.
Some trade related figures could also be mentioned, in human capital you can talk about Indian manpower in US, people to people contacts, role of diaspora etc
Next, since this is a 15 marker, some concerns could also be mentioned such as different PoV over Russian invasion, US pullback from Afghan and antagonism with Iran, issues in WTO, removal of India from GSP etc
Conclusion is fine, keep practicing. 🙂

Hello
Decent attempt, structure of your answer is good but some points could be elaborated a bit more since this is a 15 marker.
You could talk about the various defence agreements like LEMOA,COMCASA signed between both countries. Some trade related figures could also be mentioned. Good that you have mentioned recent initiatives like Quad, I2U2 etc
A separate section on concerns could be written rather than clubbing it with conclusion. Points are fine.
Conclusion is decent.
Keep practicing. 🙂
