Recently, the Lowy Institute, which is an independent Think Tank revised it's Asia Power Index. And after revision, it increased India's Ranking to No.3 and hence giving it the title 'Major Power'.

This Index ranks countries in 4 categories:-

Superpowers- As we know the big players, they shape the region with their decisions

Major Power- It strongly influences the region with it's capability and decisions, not as much as a superpower but still, comparable

Middle Power- They strongly influence the region around them but lag behind beyond it.

Minor Powers- They have very low influence even in their own region

The revised Index gave India the title of a major power which was previously owned by Japan, Russia climbed up a rank to become 5th overtaking Australia, Malaysia Overtook Thailand and got the 11th Rank.

In Indian context, I would even say that the timing of revision is really good because it hasn't been that long sich Indo-Pak Conflict has ended, in broader terms it still continues.

This Index shows that in a direct conflict and without Chinese support India does have a upper hand.

It shows that now India cannot be ignored or beliitled by China or US.

I feel India is on the right track, what do you think, feel free to give your opinion in comments.
