摘要：Afghanistan's strategic and economic importance hits the world actors. India's active involvement is quite realistic. India took the better part of the last decade in getting over her strategic timidity to assume a more assertive security role in Afghanistan. India was content to take refuge behind the fa.ade of exercising 'soft power' only, oblivious to the strategic reality that India had legitimate strategic interests in Afghanistan. Pakistan is also founding itself in a new caul-dron in Afghanistan after Indian active involvement in Afghanistan. The present study is an effort to understand the great game in Afghanistan and Indian motives .Indian involvement raises questions like, What is the nature of new great game in Afghanistan, who are main actors, what can be the future map in Afghanistan. The research concludes that the new great game in Afghanistan is constantly disturbing the balance of power in the region which is not in favor of the stability of South Asian region.
