The Central Asia forms part of our immediate neighbourhood in East Central Asia and extended neighbourhood in the West. India was geographically nearer to the Central Asian republics before partition of the country in 1947. Apart from common contiguous borders, climatic continuity, similar geographical features and geocultural affinities, India and Central Asia have long traditions of sociocultural, political and economic contacts since remote past. Their relations have been multidimensional, deep, old and continuous.We have common concerns about international terrorism, religious extremism and drugtrafficking. India and Central Asian republics may develop mutually beneficial trade relations as the latter ones are very rich in energy resources. The two regions also have geostrategic importance for each other. The book highlights all these aspects in the papers contributed by the scholars of India and Central Asian republics.
