Abstract

The geopolitical reshuffling and developments in the twenty-first century forced the countries in the Indo-Pacific region to understand and improvise their strategies. Continental power projection has considerably shifted to maritime prowess; especially so for both India and Australia. While India’s maritime interest is rather recent, Australia had not created a maritime mindset for nearly seven decades. The region of the Indian and the Pacific Oceans has gained central focus due to economic and strategic reasons with the interplay of non-traditional security issues like piracy and terrorism. The critique on maritime security became much more pronounced with China’s rise and visible aggression in South China Sea. India has been at the centre stage of these shifting balances and geopolitics of the region. Regionalism and cooperative and/or comprehensive security became the buzz words for Indo-Pacific. The study will focus on India’s maritime strategy and its convergence with Australia’s maritime strategy and the emerging relation between the two countries.
