Abstract
History Matters. โArchivalโ resources, in their many-splendored variety, are therefore of the greatest consequence, constituting the foundations of scholarship in-depth, both in the Social Sciences and Humanities. Moreover, they possess a unique relevance and magnitude in the study of Foreign Policy and International Relations. To researchers exploring Indian foreign policy and the history of independent Indiaโs relations with its neighbours, the search for archival materials was made much easier, when the late Shri AS Bhasin embarked on his long exploration - and subsequent publication - of the resources within the Historical Division of the Ministry of External Affairs of the Government of India. His meticulous efforts transformed dispersed official records, policy statements, and diplomatic exchanges into a coherent and accessible body of knowledge, enabling scholars, practitioners, and students to produce more detailed analyses of Indiaโs international engagements, grounded in official documentation. Bhasinโs work constitutes a significant act of knowledge production, shaping how Indiaโs foreign policy particularly in relation to key regions such as China and South Asia is documented, interpreted, and understood. It highlights how archival material is indispensable to historically grounded, transparent, and analytically rigorous scholarship in Foreign Policy and International Relations. This panel discussion is not merely a set of expositions about the unarguable criticality of archival resources and the challenges faced by scholars in India, but also an acknowledgement and tribute to Shri Bhasinโs contributions to the foreign policy and IR scholarly community. His compilations have enhanced transparency, bridged the gap between policy and academia, and established a robust methodological foundation for archival research.

Abstract
Decoding China: Hard Perspectives from India (2024) offers a timely and incisive exploration of Chinaโs rise as one of the most consequential geopolitical developments of the past four decades. Edited by Ambassador Ashok K. Kantha, the volume brings together perspectives from twenty-one experienced scholars, diplomats and military officials, providing a grounded and multifaceted assessment of Chinaโs trajectory under Xi Jinping. The book highlights Chinaโs global ambitions, domestic challenges, and military developments, presenting a rigorous yet accessible analysis of both internal transformations and external behaviour. It critically examines the idea of Chinaโs โnational rejuvenationโ while situating it within shifting global power dynamics. The book unpacks strategic challenges posed to India and the international order- serving as an important resource for understanding contemporary China and its evolving role in global geopolitics. The panel discussion will engage with the wide-ranging themes and analytical perspectives presented in the volume- The Tibet Question by Jayadeva Ranade, China and West Asia by Ambassador Anil Trigunayat, China after 20th Party Congress: Political, Economic and Technological Developments by Ananth Krishnan and Impact of Zero Covid Policy on China by Santosh Pai.
