The Charter is expected to help impart a more connected vision to the seven-member organisation. The Charter, and India\u2019s decision to lead the \u2018security pillar\u2019 out of the seven designated pillars of the revived BIMSTEC, has given India\u2019s regional aspirations a new <strong>orientation (familiarization with and adaptation to a situation)<\/strong>, away from the <strong>stalemated (to bring to a standstill) <\/strong>SAARC that has been unable to meet since November 2014. The new opportunity is also accompanied by its own set of problems. These <strong>inherent (Existing as an essential constituent or characteristic) <\/strong>challenges were reflected in the time taken to finalise the Charter \u2014 one of the key factors was the Rohingya crisis that has weakened bilateral Bangladesh-Myanmar ties, with Dhaka seeking full <strong>repatriation (The act of returning to the country of origin) <\/strong>of the refugees and Naypyidaw disinclined to respond positively to international pleas. Unlike SAARC, which is burdened by India-Pakistan hostilities, BIMSTEC is relatively free of sharp bilateral disagreements and promises to provide India with a co-operative sphere of its own. Given the complexity of domestic and geopolitical factors, this sphere will require sustained bilateral and group-level discussions to prevent problems such as the Rohingya crisis from becoming <strong>impediments (Something that interferes with (or delays) action or progress) <\/strong>to the smooth delivery of economic and security outcomes. India too will have to ensure equally sustained political engagement with partners such as Nepal, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh to prevent any domestic political <strong>spillover (a situation or feeling that starts in one place but then begins to happen or have an effect somewhere else) <\/strong>from affecting bilateral and group-level working relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With his call for a BIMSTEC Free Trade Agreement, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has outlined India\u2019s vision to <strong>bolster (Support and strengthen) <\/strong>trade connectivity in the grouping. An FTA spanning the maritime resource-rich members such as Myanmar and Sri Lanka could bring dramatic gains for all members. A \u2018coastal shipping ecosystem\u2019 and an interconnected electricity grid, in addition to the adopted Master Plan for Transport Connectivity, have the potential to boost intraregional trade and economic ties. Having walked away from mega trade blocs such as the China-led RCEP, New Delhi\u2019s willingness to explore an FTA within the framework of a near-home regional grouping may provide greater accommodation for multi-party interests. The security- and trade-related lessons from the troubled SAARC and SAFTA experiences also ought to serve BIMSTEC well in the long run. Ultimately though, for the revived grouping to realise its trade and economic potential, India will have to take a leadership role in assuaging any apprehensions among the smaller members of intragroup power imbalances and <strong>strive (Attempt by employing effort) <\/strong>to facilitate greater cross-border connectivity and flow of investments by lowering barriers to the movement of people and goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to improve your vocabulary further?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/vocabulary\/the-hindu-editorial-vocabulary-download-free-pdf\/\">Download the Lists of Word-Meanings of Previous Months here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Improve your word-power with the help of this daily recurring series where we analyze the difficult words published in prominent editorials.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":17231,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[69],"class_list":["post-17228","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-rbi-assistant","tag-editorials-difficult-words-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The Hindu Editorial Vocabulary\u2013 Apr 1, 2022;
