Seven decades since winning independence from British colonial rule, it remains in the category of predicted future great powers and superpowers whose best time under the sun still lies ahead. The impression that it has the potential to take on a truly prominent role in world affairs but struggles to live up to the billing is writ large in assessments of India by both critics and admirers (Karnad, 2015; Chandler and Zainulbhai, 2013)
