Central Asia holds vital strategic importance for India on account of its location and the energy reserves it holds. The new Great Game being played out in the region by Russia, the US and China is in fact a testimonial to the importance of the region. Unfortunately, India so far has not been really successful in emerging as a significant player in the Central Asian theatre. While trying to cultivate better relations with the Central Asian Republics, India can always count on its strong ties with Russia, as the latter is the most influential player in the Central Asian theatre. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis monograph attempts to examine India’s ties with Central Asia and also factors in the prevailing Russian influence in the region.
