Description: Kathmandu Dilemma by Ranjit Rae ...unmatched in its meticulous and careful research into the wellsprings of a truly unique relationship between two neighbouring states. SHYAM SARANRanjit Raes portrayal of India-Nepal relations from the Indian perspective is meticulous, nuanced and insightful." S.D. MUNIRanjit Rae breaks down the paradox of Indias very intimate yet troubled relationship with Nepal. C. RAJA MOHANThe first two decades of the new millennium have witnessed a dramatic socio-political transformation of Nepal. A violent Maoist insurgency ended peacefully, a new constitution abolished the monarchy and established a secular federal democratic republic. Nevertheless, political stability and a peace dividend have both remainedelusive. Nepal is also buffeted by changing geopolitics, including the US-China contestation for influenceand the uneasy relationship between India and China.As a close neighbour, India has been deeply associated with the seminal changes in Nepal, and the bilateral relationship has seen many twists and turns. Partly a memoir, this book examines Indias perspective on these developments, in the context of the civilizational and economic underpinnings of the India-Nepalrelationship, as well as issues that continue to prevent this relationship from exploiting its full potential. Though there are several Nepalese accounts that deal with this subject, there are few from an Indian point of view. Kathmandu Dilemma fills this gap.
