IAN HALL<\/a> | <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Narendra Modi arrives this week for an official visit to Australia. When he first came to Australia in November 2014, the recently elected Indian prime minister was still to find his feet on the global stage. Keen to show the new government meant business, Modi worked hard to establish a rapport with other leaders<\/a> at the Group of 20 (G20) summit in Brisbane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But in the limelight, Modi appeared nervous, not least in his speech to the Australian parliament<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Almost nine years on, things are very different. India is the focus of world attention, as the 2023 G20 chair<\/a>, with an economy growing faster<\/a> than almost all its competitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And Modi, now a veteran of dozens of summits and visits, is far more confident abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indifference and irritations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, the relationship between Australia and India has also changed. Twenty years ago, the two countries had very little to do with one another. China\u2019s insatiable hunger for coal and iron ore was the main focus of Australia\u2019s political and business leaders. New Delhi concerned itself with its own economic development and overcoming longstanding differences<\/a> with the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Things started to shift in the late 2000s, as both Australia and India grew more concerned<\/a> about Beijing\u2019s burgeoning power and ambition. In 2007, both countries took part in a meeting of the Quad<\/a>, a diplomatic dialogue also involving the US and Japan. Two years later, Kevin Rudd went to New Delhi and signed a new security agreement<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A little later, Australia dropped a ban on uranium sales<\/a> to India, removing a longstanding irritant in the relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These actions cleared the air, but weren\u2019t quite enough to push the two sides to build a partnership. It took the shock of Donald Trump\u2019s election as US president to provide the necessary impetus. The prospect of Trump putting \u201cAmerica First\u201d, and the possibility<\/a> the US might not act as expected if a crisis occurred, led to a flurry of diplomatic activity by Australia and India and the reconvening<\/a> of the Quad in late 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indo-Pacific partners<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since then, the Australia-India relationship has advanced in leaps and bounds, despite the disruptions caused by COVID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The biggest advances have been made in the areas of defence and security<\/a>. The two countries now hold annual leaders\u2019 summits<\/a> and talks between their foreign and defence ministers<\/a>. The Australian army, air force, navy, and special forces regularly exercise<\/a> with their Indian counterparts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The economic relationship has also become stronger, assisted by the growing Indian diaspora and concerted effort<\/a> by the Australian government. Education has been a particular highlight, with more Indian students flowing<\/a> to Australian universities and Australian institutions opening campuses in India<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conclusion of an interim trade deal<\/a> just prior to the 2022 election promises to further boost economic ties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Quad is opening up other possibilities for cooperation. Since 2017, it has expanded its agenda<\/a> to cover everything from artificial intelligence and semiconductors, to infrastructure and maritime security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Closer collaboration in the mining and processing of critical minerals<\/a> such as lithium, used in batteries, discussed within the Quad<\/a>, particularly interests both countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deals and the diaspora<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These issues and more are on the agenda for Modi\u2019s visit to Australia this week. Boosting economic ties is a key priority. A comprehensive trade and investment deal<\/a> is the ultimate aim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both countries also want to draw on the connections and capabilities of the Indian diaspora in Australia, now almost a million strong, to advance this part of the relationship. The new Centre for Australia-India Relations<\/a>, based in Sydney, will be central to this effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, Modi is also looking to the diaspora for more political reasons. His Bharatiya Janata Party (\u201cIndian People\u2019s Party\u201d, or BJP) relies on people of Indian origin across the world, especially in the US<\/a>, for funds, skills, and influence. With a national election looming in 2024, Modi wants to energise and mobilise this crucial constituency to help the BJP to a third consecutive victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Australia, however, the diaspora is divided. Some have long opposed the BJP and criticised its policies, especially concerning India\u2019s 200 million strong Muslim minority<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But lately, a new issue has surfaced in Australia and overseas: a campaign by some Sikh activists for a separate Sikh state, \u201cKhalistan<\/a>\u201d. Unofficial \u201creferendums\u201d, organised to show support for the cause, have been held in Australian cities. Anti-India and anti-Modi slogans have been daubed on Hindu temples<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only a small proportion<\/a> of Australian-based Sikhs support the Khalistan movement. But the issue is causing problems for the Modi government and for the relationship between Australia and India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During Albanese\u2019s recent visit to India, Modi reportedly pressed<\/a> his counterpart to rein in separatist activism in Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maintaining the balance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The partnership built between Australia and India is sufficiently robust to manage challenges like the Khalistan movement. And it needs to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The security and prosperity of both countries depends on closer cooperation to manage Beijing\u2019s push to reshape our region to serve China\u2019s interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Australia and India must work together \u2013 and with others across the Indo-Pacific \u2013 to maintain the balance of power that allows all countries in the region to determine their own futures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
