India, in 1963, was a country still developing and would remain so, a primarily agricultural power that could not compete with the booming West and the self-sufficient East. The country was still a valuable cultural heartland and its goods were still bought, keeping it from economic collapse. However, mass-immigration and low-quality products kept it from making a mark on the world stage.

abstract
  • India, in 1963, was a country still developing and would remain so, a primarily agricultural power that could not compete with the booming West and the self-sufficient East. The country was still a valuable cultural heartland and its goods were still bought, keeping it from economic collapse. However, mass-immigration and low-quality products kept it from making a mark on the world stage. However, in the turbulent years of the 60s and 70s, India took crucial steps which set it up for become a major diplomatic and regional power. In 1961, it helped found the Non-Aligned Movement. Although not being able to provide investment to the countries, it did offer counseling and advice to many member states of NAM after Europe began to boom again due to the events post-Braking Day. However, in 1965, war between India and Pakistan began over skirmishes in the Kasmir region of both countries. Both countries made significant progress into each other's territories, and gaining many passes. The Pakistanis counter-attacked the Indians in Operation Grand Slam but were forced back when the Indians called upon their air force. The Pakistanis responded, but India opened a new front in Pakistani Punjab, forcing the Pakistanis to divert troops. Both sides lost some land but eventually the UN mediated a ceasefire and return to the status quo. The Indians soon shut their border with East Pakistan after the war so no more Pakistani refugees and migrators could enter the country and put more strain on the economy. India returned to advising countries in the NAM, and began to gain some respect in the eyes of those countries. Many, like Ethiopia, put India's advise to good use and began to slowly free up their economy to foreign investment and aid (in the form of medical supplies and support staff to build wells and dams for the country's clean water problem).
