CPEC: A geo-economics opportunity and strategic concern for India
Authors
Col. Jitender Singh, Prashant Agrawal
Abstract
CPEC, which stands for the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, is a transformational endeavour that aims to stimulate economic development, connectivity, and strategic collaboration between China and Pakistan. The building of Gwadar Port and a huge network of roadways and railways is at the heart of this ambition. These will make trading in the area easier and cheaper. CPEC has invested in a variety of power projects and gas pipelines to help Pakistan's long-standing energy shortages. This has improved the availability of electricity and the productivity of industry, while also giving China a safe way to get energy. The goal of creating Special Economic Zones (SEZs) along the corridor is to modernize Pakistan's industrial base, with a concentration on textiles and machinery. These zones will also help with technology transfer and skill development to boost economic diversification and employment growth. All of these things make CPEC a key driver of Pakistan's social and economic change and a vital way for China to achieve its regional goals of trade & commerce and also security issues with India.
