Abstract

This article is an investigative attempt in analyzing the history of RAW activities in Sri Lanka from the very beginning. Based on the geopolitical needs of India, RAW formulated its policy towards Sri Lanka, which consisted of sabotaging and destabilizing island’s polity. This article emphasizes Sri Lanka’s failure in ignoring the geopolitical ambitions of its closest neighbor and also this article traces how Sri Lanka drifted away from its non-alligned foreign policy, which led to antagonize India. However, the focal point of the article critically examines how current plans of RAW would be challengeable to achieve in Sri Lanka with the growing influence of the Chinese presence. The content of the article compares the RAW activities in past and present under the gamut of the geopolitical shifts in South Asia.
