Summary: 
Pakistan and China enjoy exemplary friendly ties, which have been expanding and becoming even deeper with time. China s main geopolitical focus in South Asia is to restrain India as a competitor by using Pakistan as a proxy. China s growing economic and security relation with Pakistan, and the unholy nexus between the two, remains a major worry for India as the growing Chinese involvement is bound to erode India s influence in the region. Another area of concern has been the lack of credible Indian deterrence to the hybrid threats that it faces as a result of such collusivity between Pakistan and China.
