Abstract

This chapter discusses New Delhi's larger maritime approach that has been shaped by a combination of factors. The socio-economic opportunities, emerging security challenges and a quest for establishing value-based maritime order for global good has led to rejuvenation of a maritime consciousness in its foreign policy. While the newly released Maritime India 2030 vision aims at port-led development for the country with a focus on Blue Economy, SAGAR, and India's Indo-Pacific Oceans Initiative (IPOI) are a conscious attempt at complementing and cooperating with the Indo-Pacific visions of other regional partners/stakeholders. At the same time, traditional and non-traditional security threats in the maritime domain are exacerbating that has a bearing on India's maritime security calculus. It argues that India's vision aligns with the ‘Blue Security’ concept that seeks a maritime order based on economic, social, environmental, political, and military security dimensions in its maritime vision. Lastly, the paper highlights some gaps and provides a few recommendations for the policymakers to overcome the jurisdictional, legislative, and operational challenges faced by the country and cooperate with its like-minded partners in the maritime domain.
