- In the body, mention visit by India External Affairs Minister to the region and visits to countries such as Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Armenia. Also, mention India’s ‘Connect Central Asia’ policy, the significance of Chabahar port for connectivity to the region, India’s role in the Ashgabat Agreement etc. In the next part, mention the rising anti-China feeling in the region.

The main demand of the question is to write about India’s relationship with the central Asian countries, your answer dedicates very less space to that..address that part in more detail, challenges the region is facing and way forward can be made concise.
Mention about Connect Central Asia’ policy, the significance of Chabahar port for connectivity to the region, INSTC, Ashgabat Agreement etc. After introduction, you can briefly mention about Taliban and China’s influence in the region and say that this makes India’s relationship more important-and then focus on the points mentioned above. Finally conclude with the way forward.
Way forward part is fine, overall the content and knowledge is fine but you have deviated a bit.
Keep practicing. 🙂

Keep the introduction crisp and concise, you have tried to incorporate too many things making it look haphazard, mention that India had good relations with central Asia but current rise of Taliban and security situation with rising influence of China needs refocus on the part of India.
In the 2nd part, mention of MEA visit is good but it feels like you have overdone it, mention it in one point, also no need to name the minister so many times, gets repetitive. Talk about other important things too, such as Connect Central Asia policy, INSTC etc. SCO, Ashagabat agreement etc can be mentioned as different points in one subheading only.
If possible, write a brief way forward and then conclude. Keep practicing. 🙂

Hello,
Please mention reference ID for further reviews.
Coming to the answer, you have written decently. Introduction is fine, drawing map will also work in your favor. In engagement, points are good..try to link with current affairs..recent visit of EAM to the region and some of its outcomes can be mentioned. Also, Connect Central Asia policy of India should find a place.
Challenges part is fine, conclusion is also good.
Keep practicing. 🙂

Good attempt, you have covered the answer holistically. Introduction is good, challenges part is also fine..but make it a bit concise, you can use flowcharts etc. This is a 10 marker, so try to finish inside two pages.
Connect Central Asia policy, Ashgabat agreement should be mentioned in relationship with India part only. Important aspects of the relationship. Other points are good, mention of data based points are also nice.
Conclusion is good, keep practicing, try to remain inside word limit 🙂

Nice answer. Content is very good, presentation is also fine. Some points can be elaborated a bit more for example INSTC, Ashgabat agreement etc. Other points are fine.
2nd part of the answer is also good, conclusion is okay.
Keep practicing, you are writing well. 🙂
