Europe Watching India's Bulldozer Closely for Solution of Its Own Problems

Modi’s positive equation with NRIs, and how bulldozer politics helps India’s economic standing. In recent years, Europe has had to respond to the most severe migratory challenge since the end of the Second World War. The unprecedented arrival of refugees and irregular migrants in the EU, which peaked in 2015, exposed a series of deficiencies and gaps in EU policies on asylum, external borders and migration. Shashi tharoor's article "New india, Old Europe" highlights main reasons for Europe drifting towards india.
Prime Minister’s Modi’s trip to Europe this week, preceded last week by the visit to New Delhi of EU President Ursula von der Leyen, has prompted renewed interest in India’s relations with Europe. India has a number of affinities with Europe and with the European Union, not least since it, too, is an economic and political union of a number of linguistically, culturally and ethnically different states. Both are unwieldy unions of just under thirty states, both are bureaucratic, both are coalition-ridden and both are slow to make decisions. But in practice these affinities have not translated into close political or strategic relations.
