ndia conducted the first-ever
ASEAN-India maritime exer-
cise (AIME-23) and it was a
pleasant site until the move-
ment of the boats deployed by
the maritime militia operating
under the Chinese People’s Lib-
eration Army Navy (PLAN)
sailed in close proximity. The
Chinese vessels kept an eye on
the ongoing drill, which was
held around the Exclusive Eco-
nomic Zone (EEZ) of Vietnam in
the South China Sea.
As a new cold war is brewing
in the South China Sea and is
likely to spread to the larger
Indo-Pacific, the Indian Navy
along with like-minded navies
of the South East Asian region
conducts joint maritime exer-
cises. In the Indo-Pacific, China
stretches its footprint to cover
the small island nations in the
South Pacific as well as other
countries’ EEZs dotting the re-
gion, creation and unlawful
claiming of artificial islands
such as the Spratly and Parcel
are well-known facts. Spying
and Listening ports of Coco Is-
lands leased out from Myanmar
in the Bay of Bengal and dock-
ing its spy vessel Yuan Wang-5

India’s stepping up its mili-

edness exercises with various
like-minded countries and
groups amid Chinese belliger-
ence. Similar war exercises are
taking place in the Indian
Ocean, the South China Sea, and
elsewhere in the Indo-Pacific
and East Africa. Marching for-
ward, there would be joint exer-
cises in the South Pacific and
the East China Sea as well.
The recently culminated exer-
cise, co-hosted by the Republic of

mitment to the “Act East” policy
to ensure SAGAR “Security and
Growth for all in the Region”.
The Chinese Politburo claims
the South China Sea governed
by the ancient nine-dash lines as
a historical trading route under
the Chinese territory. Hence, it
believes this region which is a
treasure trove for at least six
other sovereign states, namely,
Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia,
Philippines, Vietnam and the
semi-autonomous state - Taiwan
to be sovereign territorial wa-
ters of China. Based on these
unethical claims, the dragon
continues flexing its muscles
and advances in this region.
At this juncture, China be-
lieves that the South China Sea
is an important piece of the
larger China-centric jigsaw puz-
zle or China-dominated world
order. For instance, China chose
Indonesia to launch its multi-
billion-dollar maritime silk-
road economic belt under the
Border and Road Initiative
(BRI). In its strategy, Beijing
seeks to influence critical global
supply chains, diverting the
flow of international trade via
critical sea lanes, railway lines
and seaports. Having access to
seaports, railway lines, power
stations and inter-regional high-
ways in the South China Sea and
surrounding regions increases
China’s strategic, economic and
political reach. Much of this as-
sistance is through loaning the
assets to Chinese investors at
petite interest rates and creat-
ing huge debts for the countries
not just in the neighbouring re-
gions but in East Africa as well
as other South Asia and East
Asian regions. Most countries
are aware of the functioning of
the Politburo and the Commu-
nist Party and how they tend to
first make or offer heavy invest-
ments in the name of infrastruc-
ture, development and connec-
tivity and later due to non-re-
payment of large loans leads to
debt creation and this strategy
known as the “Debt Trap Poli-
cy”. However, the smaller and
economically strapped states
fall prey to this strategy
.
With stepping up as the com-
prehensive strategic partner of
ASEAN, holding its first joint
maritime exercise, Indian Chief

inassistingneighbouringemerg-
ing economies by providing mar-
itime security support, coast
guard patrol boats, domestically
produced equipment, and other
infrastructure cooperation is
aiming for changing the modus
vivendi in the larger Indo-Pacific
region. Additionally
, India, Indo-
nesia,andVietnaminSouthEast
Asia should brace up their man-
ufacturing base to land compa-
nies looking to exit China. This
would strengthen domestic man-
ufacturing units and help dis-
tressed countries in the process
of de-coupling from China.
To counter-action this dubi-
ous strategy
, India is working on
its Necklace of Diamonds strat-
egy, the International North-
South Transport Corridor (IN-
STC) and working towards se-
curing an open, free and rules-
based African Indo-Pacific. As
India has historical trade routes
with the Arabic and the East-
African region, and buttressing
its economic prowess, it tends to
secure and ensure prosperity in
both – the East and the West.

l Normal train services

HIGHLIGHTS
Balasore/New Delhi
(PTI): The Railways on
Sunday virtually ruled
out driver error and
system malfunction, in-
dicating a possible “sig-
nalling interference”
and hinting at “sabo-
tage” and tampering of
the electronic interlock-
ing system behind the
triple train accident
that claimed 275 lives.
Railway Minister
Ashwini Vaishnaw has
sought a CBI inquiry
into the accident. How-
ever, officials said the
inquiry by the commis-
sioner of railway safety
(CRS) would continue.
Vaishnaw said that
the “root cause” of the
accident and the people
responsible for the
“criminal act” have
been identified.
“It happened due to a
change made in the elec-
tronic interlocking and
point machine,” he told
reporters at the site of
Friday’s accident in Bal-
asore district. More on P6

“ELECTRONIC
INTERLOCKING
BEHIND ACCIDENT”
123 TRAINS
CANCELLED,
56 DIVERTED
Balasore: Railway Minister
Ashwini Vaishnaw on Sunday
said the tragic train accident
in Balasore occurred due to a
“change in electronic interlock-
ing”. Electronic interlocking
is an arrangement of signal
apparatus that prevents con-
flicting movements between
trains through an arrange-
ment of tracks. It is basically
a safety measure to prevent
signals from being changed in
improper sequence.
New Delhi (PTI): The
railways has cancelled
123 trains, diverted 56,
short-terminated 10 and
rescheduled 14 trains
due to the accident in
Odisha in which 275
people were killed. These
trains include those with
journey commencing
from June 3 to June
7. The cancelled trains
include Sealdah-Puri Du-
ronto, Howrah-Chennai
Mail, Kanyakumari-How-
rah Express, Shalimar
Express, Tirupati Weekly
Superfast Express, SM-
VT-Bengaluru Superfast
Express, Santraganchi
AC Superfast, Purulia-
Villupuram.
This is a different issue. It is about point
machine, electronic interlocking. The change
that occurred during electronic interlocking,
the accident happened due to that. Whoever did it and
how it happened will be found out after proper investi-
gation. —Ashwini Vaihsnaw, Railway Minister

“Due to change in electronic interlocking”
RAILWAYS EXPLAINS BALASORE TRAIN CRASH
New Delhi (Agencies):
The Railway Board on
Sunday detailed the
events leading to the
catastrophic triple train
accidentinOdisha'sBal-
asore on Friday night
that killed at least 275
peopleandleftover1,000
injured. Railways Min-
ister Ahswini Vaishnaw
has said the accident
was caused due to an is-
sue with the electronic
interlocking system.
The Bahanaga Bazar
station in Balasore,
wherethehorrificcrash
took place, is a four-line
station, the railways ex-
plained, adding that
there are two main lines
in the middle and two
loop lines on either side.
There were goods trains
loaded with iron ore on
both the loop lines, Jaya
Verma Sinha, Member,
Operations BD, Rail-
way Board, said. She
repeatedly stressed that
only one train, the Co-
romandel Express, and
not three, as has been
allegedly speculated,
suffered an accident.
For some reason,
that train met with an
accident, and the en-
gine and coach went
over it, she said. It
crashed into a goods
train full of iron ore sta-
tioned on one of the
loop lines, she ex-
plained, claiming that
the goods train ab-
sorbed all the shock of
the crash as it was very
heavy. Coaches of the
Coromandel Express
got thrown off into the
third track and rammed
into a couple of coaches
of the train approach-
ing at high speed from
Howrah, Sinha said.
The railways has said
that Kavach, the indig-
enously developed auto-
matic train protection
system, was not availa-
ble on the route where
the accident occurred.
Sinha, dismissing
West Bengal CM Mama-
ta Banerjee's question
on the absence of Ka-
vach, reiterated the
Railways Minister's as-
sertion that the crash
had nothing to do with
Kavach as it wouldn't
have been helpful in
averting such an acci-
dent. No technology in
the world can avert
some accidents, she
said, citing examples of
boulders suddenly
dropping in front of ve-
hicles as an example.

LAST YEAR’S AUDIT
REPORT FLAGGED SERIOUS
CONCERNS ON RAIL SAFETY
New Delhi: Critics pointed to an audit
report of the railways tabled in the Par-

way Board has detailed the sequence
of events leading to the crash. The
Comptroller and Auditor General, in a
2022 report on derailments in Indian
Railways sought to find out whether
measures to prevent derailments and
collisions were clearly laid down and
implemented by the rail ministry.

Balasore district. Two key officials of
the Railway Board - Principal Exec-
utive Director of Signalling Sandeep
