India-Nepal Relations: Beyond 'Big Brother' Politics - Shashi Tharoor
India-Nepal relations take centre stage in this wide-ranging conversation with Dr Shashi Tharoor, Dr Vinay Sahasrabuddhe and Nepal's Sunima Udas. The panel examines the deep cultural and historical ties between the two countries, the 'big brother' perception of India, Nepal's strategic autonomy, the failure of SAARC, and China's growing influence in the region. The discussion also explores whether cultural ties can become a stronger foundation for regional cooperation and how India can build a more equal and mutually respectful relationship with its neighbours.
