Hello
I think you have transgressed a bit from what has been asked.
In intro, visit of Nancy Pelosi and the Chinese response can be mentioned to link it with current affairs.
In next part, you need to mention what can India learn from Taiwan’s response to the situation.
So, first mention some examples of Chinese aggressive approach against India.
Then, talk about the need to articulate red lines (for examples, talks over LAC has been happening for a longtime now, meanwhile the Chinese salami slicing tactics continue..which should be protested more vigorously by India). Avoiding appeasement (trying to come in good books of China) and recognition that economic and trade relations are two way process( both countries need each other, it is not just that India needs China) can also be mentioned.
In conclusion, try to conclude by suggesting an approach for India vis-a-vis China rather that bringing in Indo-Pacific.
Indo-Pacific has multiple factors at play. Also, no need to mention so many scholars, use them in PSIR answers.
Keep practicing. 🙂

Decent attempt.
Introduction is good.
Points mentioned are fine, but the answer overall has a preachy tone which can be avoided.
Before coming to the points straightaway, some examples of Chinese aggressiveness in Indian context can also be mentioned.
You can show some things that India has done too in each point to make the answer balanced.
Freedom of a newspaper article cannot be used in answer, it should be a bit more balanced, instead of using words like ‘must’, ‘should’, you can use ‘can’, ‘could’.
Conclusion is fine.
Keep practicing. 🙂
Thank you sir Staff @CD for your valuable suggestion. I will try to be more balanced.
Valuable lessons, I like it very much dynamons world
