The Gujral Doctrine is a set of five principles to guide the conduct of foreign relations with India’s immediate neighbours. These principles are:
With neighbours like Bangladesh, Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal and Sri Lanka, India does not ask for reciprocity but gives and accommodates what it can in good faith and trust.
No South Asian country should allow its territory to be used against the interest of another country of the region.
No country should interfere in the internal affairs of another.
All South Asian countries must respect each other’s territorial integrity and sovereignty.
They should settle all their disputes through peaceful bilateral negotiations. Launching of SAARC Satellite shows Unity and cooperation.
