Located in a key geo political and geo strategic place, South Asia is witnessing fierce strategic competition between the two Asian powers, China and India. India's strategic objective in South Asia is to consolidate its position as a major power in the region, using it as a springboard to expand its influence outward, towards becoming the center of world power. For China, South Asia has a direct impact on its stability, security and development. Therefore, China's strategic goal in South Asia is to expand strategic space, compete for influence, and establish a perimeter to encircle and contain India. The article presents the following issues: 1) The basis of strategic competition between India and China in South Asia; 2) Situation of strategic competition between the two countries; and 3) Some predictive remarks for the strategic competition of the two countries in South Asia in the coming time.
