RAJA MOHAN\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The first two decades of the new millennium have witnessed a dramatic socio-political transformation of Nepal. A violent Maoist insurgency ended peacefully, a new constitution abolished the monarchy and established a secular federal democratic republic. Nevertheless, political stability and a peace dividend have both remained elusive. Nepal is also buffeted by changing geopolitics, including the US-China contestation for influence and the uneasy relationship between India and China.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e As a close neighbour, India has been deeply associated with the seminal changes in Nepal, and the bilateral relationship has seen many twists and turns. Partly a memoir, this book examines India's perspective on these developments, in the context of the civilizational and economic underpinnings of the India-Nepal relationship, as well as issues that continue to prevent this relationship from exploiting its full potential. Though there are several Nepalese accounts that deal with this subject, there are few from an Indian point of view. \u003ci\u003eKathmandu Dilemma\u003c\/i\u003e fills this gap.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House India Pvt.
