Dialogue
with India

FOREWORD

In 2011 Germany and India will celebrate the 60th anniversary of their establishment of diplomatic
relations, and both countries will be able to look back on a long tradition of German-Indian friend-
ship. Germany and India have many significant common interests which form the basis of a strategic
partnership between the two countries. This is demonstrated by the “Joint Statement on the Strategic
Partnership” and the “Joint Statement on the Further Development of the Strategic and Global Partner-
ship” agreed by Chancellor Angela Merkel und Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. In addition to closer
consultation on pressing global political issues, the German-Indian partnership is designed to promote

sions, to name but a few.

The Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung has set itself the goal of helping to consolidate the strategic partnership
between India and Germany in order to further strengthen bilateral ties between the two countries. The
foundation has had representatives in India for more than 40 years and during this time it has been
able to develop an extensive network of contacts which has built up trust and cooperation. Since we
first started to work in India the country has been through enormous changes, and KAS has also had to
adjust to these. This can be seen in the way that KAS’s main areas of activity have changed over time,
with its initial focus on development moving more towards dialogue programmes on issues such as
foreign and security policy, economic and energy policy, the rule of law and media policy.

To mark the start of the Year of Germany in India 2011/2012, we trust this country brochure will
provide all the information you need on the key activities of KAS and its partners within India’s current
political framework. We hope it will offer our readers a clear insight into our projects in India.

INTRODUCTION
Kon ra d-Aden au er-S t if tu n g w o r ldwi d e
The Kon rad-Adenauer-Sti f tung
We are a political foundation with a strong presence
throughout Germany and all over the world. Our
foreign offices oversee 200 programmes in 120
countries. Through our civic education programmes
both at home and abroad we promote freedom, peace
and justice.
The principles of Konrad Adenauer, first Federal Chan-
cellor of Germany, form our guidelines, the basis of our
mission and engagement. The foundation took on his
name in 1964. It had been established in 1955, and
our headquarters are Berlin and Sankt Augustin near
the former federal capital Bonn.
The Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung is an association.
Inspired by democratic values, we work for the
common good on a strictly non-profit basis. As the
other political foundations in Germany, we are orga-
nised under private law. In an independent, respon-
sible, open-minded manner, we provide services which
are in the public interest but cannot be supplied by the
state. They are funded primarily by the federal govern-
ment and local states. The Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung
relies on public fonds, event participation fees and
other sources for funding, including private revenues
(income from investments and donations).
EUR OP EAN AN D Inte rn ational Cooperation
The Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS) is committed
to fostering democracy and the rule of law, to imple-
menting social and market-economic structures and to
promoting human rights. With its worldwide networks
to the political and social elites and with its long-term
partner structures, it participates in shaping policy in
developing and emerging countries. By training and
educating young professionals, the KAS promotes
the developing process in social groups and political
parties. The Foundation fosters decentralisation
processes based on the values of freedom, solidarity
and justice by facilitating projects for public institutions
in order to enhance their technical and administrative
performance.
The KAS’ charter stipulates the task to elaborate
the groundwork for the political working by means
of research and consultancy. This is more than just
giving advices on actual political questions. It means
to research on the implications of modern democracies
in nowadays time of media which includes preparing
reforms by political education and to evolve to a fore-
sighted policy which helps avoiding crisis beforehand.
Currently the KAS hosts more than 200 projects in
around 120 countries on four continents with with over
80 offices. Founded in 1962 as “Institute for Interna-
tional Solidarity” the “Department for European and
International Cooperation” is nowadays responsible for
the international cooperation.
The Department is based on two types of programs:
the country programs and the regional sector
programs. The country programs are based on fixed
partner programs and flexible measures which are
chosen by the delegated representative of the KAS in
the respective country due to an analysis of demand
and in cooperation with the partner organisations. With
its regional sector programs, the KAS promotes a long
term embodiment of structures that are based on the
rule of law as well as a free and independent media in
the project countries.
Besides Bonn and Berlin, the office in Brussels has
become a third pillar of the Stiftung. The work of
KAS in Western Europe and the USA gives priority
to deepening the transatlantic partnership as well as
the dialogue with the European Institutions and the
European People’s Party.
The KAS has supported the countries of Central and
Eastern Europe to overcome obstacles on their path
to the EU membership as well as to remove economic
and political backlogs by providing political expertise
and educational training. The transformation process
in these countries will continue to be reinforced by
focusing on cooperation with political parties, in
strengthening the civil society as well as in estab-
lishing a dialogue in common values with our partner
network.
By means of its regional rule of law programs as
well as the project “media and democracy”, the KAS
supports the establishing of pluralistic societies in
South Eastern Europe. Through the offices in Moscow
and Saint Petersburg the KAS stays in permanent
dialogue with the political and academic elite in Russia
as well as the Russian orthodox church.
In Asia, further development of the rule of law, good
governance and poverty reduction are in the focus of
the foundation’s activities. In Central and Southeast
Asia, the KAS provides programs on the establishment
and consolidation of democracy and the civil society,
on conflict prevention and on the inter-religious
dialogue.
In Latin America programmes strengthening demo-
cratic institutions, supporting young politicians, the
dialogue on values, the role of the media, and the
constitutional state have first priority.
Considering the progresses in political liberalization,
democratization and the respect of human rights in
many countries of sub-Saharan Africa the KAS inten-
sified its programmes to directly take part in politics
there. Thus, a main focus is conflict transformation
and capacity development, which are prerequisite for
sustainable development in the region.
In the Near and Middle East the KAS contributes to
the political, economical and social stabilization of the
region and promotes democratic processes through
a necessary decentralization of power. Besides, in its
special programme “Dialogue with the Islam” the KAS
tries to identify similarities and differences between
Western democracies and the Islamic world and to
build a bridge for a common future.
About Konra d Ade nauer
Konrad Adenauer is the founding Chancellor of the
Federal Republic of Germany. The foundational policies
set during his term as Chancellor (1949-1963) are still
shaping the internal structure and foreign policy of the
Federal Republic of Germany today.
The entrance of the Federal Republic into the circle of
Western democracies, the European integration project
and the German-French reconciliation are inextricably
bound to Adenauer’s name. Immediately after assu-
ming his role as Chancellor, he formulated on behalf
of the people of Germany the intention to “rectify the
injustice committed against the Jewish people to the
greatest extent possible given the millions of lives that
have been destroyed forever.”
The reconstruction of West Germany, overcoming the
aftermath of the war, the choice of a social market
economy and far-reaching socio-political decisions fell
within Adenauer’s time as Chancellor.
The CDU, established after a sudden wave of party
formations in 1945, rose as “the Chancellor’s party”
with Adenauer to become the most successful party in
German twentieth-century history.

THE KON RA D-AD ENAUE R-STIF TUNG
IN IN DIA
India was one of the first Asian countries to introduce
country-related programmes initiated by the Konrad-
Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS). In more than 40 years of
cooperation, a wide range of activities were under-
taken at different levels: poverty alleviation in rural
areas, capacity building of local government institu-
tions, training for small and medium scale enterprises
in North and South India, programmmes for judicial
reforms, civil society initiatives and seminars related
to the concept of rule of law. Various economic and
value-oriented dialogues were held and high ranking
exchanges on the subject of international relations and
security policy have been established. The history of
the activities of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung in India
reflects not only the changing priorities of the country’s
development strategies but also India’s gradual rising
political and economic status in the region as well as
its emergence as a global power.
From the early stages onwards it has been the
endeaour of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung to pro-
mote a greater understanding between Europe and
India as well as to widen and deepen the people-to-
people links between Germany, India and the EU.
KAS Publication “India and
the European Union” with
a foreword by Indian Prime
Minister Manmohan Singh
KAS IN INDIA
The KAS wants to contribute to a broadened Indo-
German and Indo-European dialogue, to sustain an
exchange of ideas and experiences and, last but not
least, to enhance the mutual visibility – beyond the
government-to-government relations.
India and Europe have much in common. They share
the same core values of democracy, pluralism, human
rights, rule of law as well as the promotion of an
independent judiciary and media. Both form stable
examples of multi-lingual, multi-religious and multi-
cultural societies. Furthermore, India and Europe are
both faced by global threats like climate change and
non-proliferation and recognise their responsibilities in
a world that needs better coordinated global gover-
nance. A strong and mutually benefitting partnership
between Europe and India will enable both partners
to address these global challenges with more success.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh recognizes India
and Europe as natural partners. In the context of the
Eleventh EU-India-Summit he has stated that: “there
is a high degree of convergence of our views on global
issues. I will seek to deepen our political and strategic
cooperation.” Being India’s largest trading partner, it is
1
India’s dynamic growth that gives Europe an increa-
singly special position as a unique economic partner.
Over the years the India-EU relations have developed
substantially and grown exponentially. The focus
shifted from a purely trade and economic driven rela-
tionship, towards new forms of political and strategic
partnership with growing areas of co-operation. The
Fifth India-EU Summit in The Hague on 8th November
2004 was historic in that respect because it endorsed
the proposal to upgrade the India-EU relationship to
the level of a ‘Strategic Partnership’. The following
Sixth Summit in New Delhi a year later laid out a
coherent framework comprising a ‘Joint Action Plan’
(JAP) to attain the full potential of partnership and
cooperation. It provides a concrete agenda and is the
unique core of EU-India relations. The JAP emphasizes

Meeting on Indian Economy”, February 6, 2005
the objective to build strategic working relationships
on the political as well as the economic levels. Since
its adoption the cooperation between India and the EU
has further deepened. New challenges that have arisen
since the formulation of the JAP have been accounted
with its revision in 2008 at the Ninth Summit to ensure
further progress in the coming period and promote
new activities like promoting peace and comprehensive
security and sustainable development. After the Lisbon
Treaty entered into force, the eleventh meeting in
2010 was the first summit under the new European
Foreign and Security Policy.
T he developm ent o f KAS
progr ammes in India
In the light of the ongoing changes and developments
in India, the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung has intensified
its programmes related to topics on EU-India relations
in New Delhi and extended its activities to different
parts of the country. A range of issues of mutual inte-
rest have been taken up through seminars, round
table talks and dialogues with high ranking German
individuals and European and Indian politicians.
Distinguished Members of the German, European
and Indian Parliaments have visited both countries.
Furthermore, KAS has increased its collaboration with
policy advisors, researchers from leading think-tanks
and members from the civil society. Continuity and
change have marked the engagement of the Konrad-
Adenauer-Stiftung in India. While the first programmes
were based on a developmental approach, they advan-
ced over the years into a comprehensive agenda of
inclusive cooperation to take up newly emerging
challenges. Most importantly, after four decades of
active presence in India the KAS established a compre-
hensive network of partner organisations and strategic
collaborations.
11
From 1968 till 1980s
In the first phase of operations from 1968 to the end
of the eighties the joint activities of the KAS and its
partners were concentrated on the then pressing
developmental needs of India. Insofar the projects
covered rural development, poverty alleviation, tech-
nical training and skill development of the rural youth
as well as the establishment of self-help groups for the
disadvantaged sectors of society. Project coope­rations
were entered with Vishwa Yuvak Kendra in New Delhi,
the Rama Krishna Mission in Kolkata, the Indian Insti-
tute for Youth Welfare in Nagpur, the Yuvak Vikas Trust
in Ahmedabad and the Institute for Youth and Develop-
ment in Bangalore.
From 1980s till 2000
The second phase from the end of the eighties till the
beginning of the new millennium was characterised by
an active enlargement of the projects. New training
programs for the Panchayati Raj and elected village
councils were taken up with the Centre for Rural
Entrepreneurship and Technical Education (CREATE)
in Lucknow and the All India Santal Welfare and
Cultural Society (AISWACS) in West Bengal. Special
attention was given to coalition building with rural
NGO’s. Furthermore, Training of Trainers-programmes
in pro-poor advocacy started with the Independent
Commission for Peoples Rights and Development
(ICPRD) in New Delhi. In order to promote small and
medium enterprises in India, to foster entrepreneurial
start ups of new businesses and to bring them in line
with the opening up of India’s new economic policy the
KAS initiated additional projects with the PHD Chamber
of Commerce and Industry in New Delhi as well as the
Madras Management Association (MMA) in Chennai.
Dialogues were conducted in cooperation with the
Centre for Public Affairs (CPA), the Rashtriya Jagriti
Sansthan, the Society for Peace, Security and Deve-
lopment Studies and the Institute for Defense Studies
and Analyses (IDSA). Furthermore, issues related to
European integration were taken up with the Centre for
European Studies of the Jawaharlal Nehru University
and the Delegation of the European Commission in
Delhi. Topics of Indo-German relevance were dealt
with in cooperation with the Federation of Indo-
German Sciences (FIGS).

Fro m 2000 onwards
In 2003 the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung enhanced and
partly restructured its country concept for India. Buil-
ding upon past achievements successful projects were
carried on and incorporated in new programmes and
cooperations. In formulating the new concept the KAS
took into consideration India’s emergence as a regional
and global power, the increasingly important role that
India plays across a wide range of global affairs as well
as the deep rooted process of reform, transformation
and change the country is still undergoing. The new
concept is built on the “Agenda for Indo-German
Partnership” of the year 2000 and integrated elements
of the joint declaration of Prime Minister Manmohan
Singh and German Federal Chancellor Angela Merkel
(2006) on the “strategic partnership” to further deepen
the bilateral relations between India and Germany in
various fields. Nowadays, five working areas of the
Foundation can be identified:
1. Foreign and Security Policy,
2. Economic and Energy Politics,
3. Rule of Law,
4. Social and Political Change and local
Self-Government and
5. Media.
For these purposes new partners have extended
their cooperation, such as the Institute for Peace and
Conflict Studies (IPCS), the United Service Institution
of India (USI), the Federation of Indian Chambers
of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), The Energy
and Resources Institute (TERI), the Indian Council
for Research on International Economic Relations
(ICRIER), the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA)

KAS PROGRAMMES
AND PARTNERS
Fore ign an d Sec ur it y Policy
As part of the strategic dialogue between India and Germany on the one hand and in global
aspects on the other hand KAS supports exchanges among experts in the field of foreign security
and defence policy. In the annual NATO-India-Dialogue, political decision makers and experts from
both sides exchange views on key strategic issues in relation to neighbouring countries, global
security, terrorism, regional conflicts and possible new challenges to NATO and India. In addition,
there is a focus on foreign policy in the discussion of the challenges of emerging economies, a
dialogue between Germany, India, Brazil, and South Africa (GIBSA). The Institute of Peace and
Conflict Studies (IPCS) is one of the main partner institutions of KAS in the field of foreign, secu-
rity and defence policy in India. IPCS is also the Indian partner in a Trialogue (Germany – India –

The PHD Chamber of Commerce and
Industry, established in 1905, is a
proactive and dynamic multi-State
apex organisation working at the
grass roots level with strong national and international
linkages.The Chamber acts as a catalyst in the promo-
tion of industry, trade and entrepreneurship. PHD
Chamber, through its research-based policy advocacy
role, positively impacts the economic growth and deve-
lopment of the nation. It is more than an organisation
of the business community, as it lives by the chosen
motto ‘In Community’s Life & Part of It’ and contri-
butes significantly to socio-economic development
and capacity building in several fields. PHD Chamber’s
geographical span covers the 10 States of Chhattis­
garh, Delhi, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and
Kashmir, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Rajasthan, Uttar
Pradesh, Uttarakhand and the Union Territory of
Chandigarh. It has a direct membership of over 1,600
corporate entities and serves more than 45,000 indi-
rect members through over 150 Association Members
and eight Secretarial Affiliates. The membership covers
the entire industrial spectrum. The Chamber provides
excellent networking opportunities with government
officials, diplomats, leading names from all spheres of
life and also business peers. The organisation provides
an excellent forum to Indian companies for getting
their problems redressed by and their suggestions put
up to relevant government authorities at the central
and state level, through both focussed interaction with
government officials and submissions of memoranda
MP Dr. Joachim Pfeiffer visits PHD, October 3, 2009
and representations. PHD Chamber is incorporated in
numerous central and state advisory and consultative
bodies. Both Central and State Governments consult
PHD Chamber before announcing or formulating any
major economic or industrial policy. It produces well
researched background and policy papers on topical
issues to initiate informed debate and discussion. PHD
Chamber provides information on business opportu-
nities abroad and a platform to interact with visiting
foreign business delegations. The Chamber is globally
connected through institutional linkages with over 60
important foreign Chambers of Commerce.
The PHD Chamber and the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung
came together in May 1989 when a Seminar on “The
Role of SME’s in Export Development” was jointly orga-
nized. This event was instrumental in making them
realize the commonality of their views on entrepre-
neurship development and the importance of a vibrant
SME sector for the economic development of India. As
a result, the Partner Project between PHD Chamber
and Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung was formed in 1990
with the approval of the Indian Union Ministry of Home
Affairs. The basic philosophy behind the Project is that
only individual initiative and entrepreneur spirit can
help building up self reliance and sustainable growth.
Small and medium enterprises are important in this
context, not merely because they are the backbone
of any economy but they can help to further establish
inclusive development. SMEs play an important role
in generating employment, optimizing deployment of
local and regional resources as well as bringing about
balanced regional growth. In the last 20 years, the
Project has been contributing in filling the gap between
the professional requirements of SMEs and the existing
level of expertise in their managerial cadre. The Project
has exposed about 25,000 entrepreneurs and execu-
tives in different functional areas and conducts about
45 training programmes per year in different parts of
North India.

Madr as Management Association (MMA)
Madras Management Association
(MMA) was established in 1956 with
the prime objective of promoting
management education, training
and development activities in the
southern part of the country. The vision of MMA is
“to be the fountainhead of world-class management
excellence”. Over the past five decades, MMA has
striven for development and nurturing management
expertise, combining Indian ethos with international
best practices in management.
MMA is the largest affiliate association of the All
India Management Association in India. MMA had
been judged the best Local Management Association
continuously for a period of five years (between 2001
and 2006) in recognition of its excellent all-round
activities in propagating the message of professional
management in all facets of business, commercial and
industrial activities. MMA was also awarded with the
“National Excellence Award” for the period of 2007-
2008 and 2009-2010.
At present, MMA has more than 6,000 members which
include corporate houses, public sector undertakings,
small and medium enterprises, educational institu-
tions, corporate executives, government officials,
consultants and management students. With a view to
disseminating excellence in management across the
17
state of Tamil Nadu, MMA as part of its strategy has
extended its activity to the areas beyond Chennai. In
this direction, MMA chapters have been established
at various towns in Tamil Nadu mainly to cater to the
needs of SMEs. Three of the chapters at Salem, Hosur
and Puducherry are already functioning efficiently.
In 1988-89, the MMA-KAS Project was inaugurated.
Over the last 21 years, as many as 2,017 programmes
with 102,160 participants have been held under the
MMA-KAS partnership. These have benefited the
participating organizations and individuals immensely.
The history of the cooperation between MMA and the
KAS constitutes years of dedication to vitalize a key
sector of India’s economy, namely, the Small and
Medium Enterprises. The MMA-KAS partnership aims
to strengthen the SME sector in India by creating a
better climate for the SME sector by enabling capa-
city building and increase of productivity in the SME
segment, by improving their management practices
and governance, and by creating awareness amongst
government and policy makers for the improvement
of the legal and regulatory framework of the SME
sector in India. MMA developed the widely recognised
instrument of so called “regional conclaves”. In these
conferences South Indian business experts and
owners of SMEs debate current topics, such as the
consequences of the financial and economic crisis and
they express their expectations to political leaders
on the state and national level for sustainable growth
and monetary policies. MMA believes this approach
for strengthening the SME sector is in line with India’s
national development strategies and the KAS’ views on
accelerating economic and social development.

Energy Dialogue, October 24-26, 2010
The Confederation of Indian Bar and the Supreme Court Bar Association, partners of the KAS in
the field of rule of law, have been carrying out activities on legal reforms supporting the functio-
nality and reform of India’s legal institutions, such as seminars on the Constitution Commission
Report and the annual All India Seminars on Judicial Reforms. Seminars on issues of national
significance are organized in which leading personalities from the judiciary, executive and legis-
lature regularly participate, including the President of India, the Union Law Minister and the Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court of India. These seminars relate to general reforms in the Indian legal
system or individual constitutional reforms. To achieve a sustainable impact, the results of the
programs are regularly published and distributed to the relevant target groups. Issues of interna-
tional significance, such as Intellectual Property Rights and the International Criminal Court are
equally covered in this working area.

TERI is a dynamic and flexible organi-
zation with a global vision and a local
focus. It was established in 1974.
Initially, the focus of the Institute
was on documentation and information dissemination.
Research activities in the fields of energy, environ-
ment, and sustainable development were initiated
towards the end of 1982. All these activities were
rooted in TERI’s firm conviction that efficient utilization
of energy, sustainable use of natural resources, large-
scale adoption of renewable energy technologies and
reduction of all forms of waste would move the process
of development towards the goal of sustainability. TERI
is deeply committed to every aspect of sustainable
development, and emphasis has always been placed on
finding innovative solutions to make the world a better
place to live. Although TERI’s vision is global, its roots
are firmly entrenched in Indian soil. All activities in
TERI move from formulating local- and national-level
strategies to shaping global solutions to critical energy-
and environment-related issues. In its endeavour to
shape global solutions, TERI has collaborated with like-
minded institutes and organizations across the world.
The Konrad Adenauer Stiftung and TERI have enjoyed
a fruitful and mutually beneficial collaboration over the
last five years in the critical area of energy security.
TERI and the KAS have worked closely together on a
very successful annual international energy dialogue.
The themes of the energy dialogues have expanded In addition, on the regional level, the partner-network of the KAS, the Joint Staff Development
over the years to include a broad array of issues under Programme (JSDP), developed a “Curriculum on the Rule of Law”, which has been translated into
the rubric of energy security that are of relevance several local languages, to educate representatives of communities in rural areas of India.
not only to India but for the rest of the world as well.
Some of the more important issues that the TERI-KAS
energy dialogues have touched include climate change,
foreign policy and security issues, governance and
energy security, role of renewables and other alterna-
tives to fossil fuels, assessment of risks and challenges
arising from the ownership of resources in a globalised
world. TERI has also initiated a two-year study project
on “Responsible Sovereignty and Energy Resources” in
cooperation with the KAS. The study seeks to under-
stand how the state’s power and authority has been
changed in the context of resource development and
the impacts arising from it – taking coal and uranium
as specific case studies. Furthermore, a project is
taken up by the KAS with TERI (and other partners in
South-Africa and Brazil as well) on “Megaevents and
Sustainable Cities”.

Cent re f or the Stu dy of
De veloping Societie s (CSDS)
The Centre for the Study of Develo-
ping Societies, (CSDS) established
in 1963, is a leading social science
research institution, supported by the Indian Council
of Social Science Research. CSDS provides a unique
autonomous institutional space, which seeks to nurture
intellectual interest outside the entrenched boundaries
of academic disciplines. Lokniti, a programme for
comparative democracy, is a research programme at
CSDS established in 1997. Lokniti houses a cluster of
research initiatives and nests a nation-wide research
network that seeks to engage with national and global
debates on democratic politics by initiating empirically
grounded yet theoretically oriented studies. Lokniti
is best known for its large-scale empirical studies of
electoral politics and voting behaviour in India. These
studies include a series of national election studies as
well as assembly election studies.
In cooperation with the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung,
Lokniti undertook a youth study, which aimed at
capturing the aspirations and social universe of the
youth in India, their values and beliefs and their
orientation towards society, culture, politics and
important global issues. This study ‘Indian Youth in
a Transforming World: Attitudes and Perceptions’ has
been published by Sage Publication in 2009. Currently
a study on “Youths in Indian Politics” is an ongoing
project with the KAS.

Cent re f or Pub l ic Affairs (CPA)
The Centre for Public Affairs (CPA)
was established in 1993. To make
strategic interventions in diverse
debates CPA conducts seminars,
research studies and commission
working papers with specific foci on
relevant themes. Its priority areas are: institutions,
governance (both unit-based and multi-level), plura-
lism and sectarianism, education and human resource
development, social development and voluntary sector,
norms and ethics in public life, intra- and inter-country
migrations, peace and conflict resolution, and regional
and global security. CPA’s objective is to develop a
body of knowledge to provide policy choices on issues
of public affairs. Its understanding of public affairs
encompasses a complex gamut of concerns around
which the state and the public interact, cooperate,
bargain and at times even conflict with each other.
These concerns include public policies, societal
pressures as well as citizens’ initiatives that are either
developed as inputs to or as outputs of those policies.
CPA assigns particular importance to citizens’ initia-
tives and the expansion of civil society initiatives. This
dimension of public affairs has lately assumed greater
salience because of people’s growing awareness about
their rights and their fear of losing them to arbitrary
new policies of the state. The phenomenon is global
and CPA contributes to the discourse. CPA works with
a team of networked scholars both within the country
and outside. The members of its governing board,
all of whom are either academics or persons with
academic interests, have been contributing to CPA’s
academic endeavour since its inception.
CPA’s major academic programmes that consists of
workshops, seminars and studies began in collabora-
tion with the KAS in 2000. A publication on “The Indian
Parliament”, a monograph on “Terrorism and the Rule
of Law: An Indian Perspective”, a project on “Parties
and Democracy in India: Emerging and Future Trends”,
a monograph on “Emergence of Regional Parties in
India: Implications for National Parties, Policies and
the Democratic System” and a study on the recent
developments of the Indian political party system has
been undertaken.

Joint Staff Development P ro gr amm e (JSDP)
The belief in partnership is one of the fundamental
principles of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung. This
common ground led to the now 27 years old KAS- M E DIA
JSDP Partner Network in India. The underlying idea
was that the directors and staff of the KAS partners
should come together for annual meetings in order

BILATERAL

India and Germany have traditionally enjoyed close ties in the political, economic, cultural and
development policy sphere. Both nations strive to nurture these ties; consequently relations are
on a sound footing, flanked by 60 years of bilateral engagement.2 The foundations of this relation-
ship are built on shared values and a convergence of interests.3 A series of high-ranking visits
have enhanced the Indo-German bilateral relations considerably. The most recent exchanges have
included the visit of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to Germany in 2006, when India was the
partner country at the Hanover industrial fair, in 2007 when Singh was in Germany again for the
G8+5 Heiligendamm Summit and the meeting with Chancellor Angela Merkel in 2010 in Berlin
after the Eleventh EU-India Summit. Federal Chancellor Merkel visited India in 2007 and former
German Federal President Horst Köhler travelled to the

Prof. Dr. Günter Krings, Member of the German Parliament
celebrate the 60th anniversary of bilateral relations with a
“Year of Germany in India 2011-2012”.
The existing political ties are constantly being consolidated
and enhanced through new agreements and treaties.
Thus, the “Agenda for Indo-German Partnership in the 21st
Century” adopted in May 2000 addresses areas to further
deepen the bilateral relations between India and Germany.
Manmohan Singh and Angela Merkel supplemented this
Agenda with a “Joint Declaration” on strategic partnership

in 2010, Merkel stated that “we have set ambitious goals, for example to increase foreign trade
to 20 billion Euros by 2012,” which is a challenge considering the current trade volume of around
13 billion Euros. Singh remarked after the meeting that “the sky is the limit for our cooperation,”
praising India’s “excellent” relations with Germany.

H.E. Anand Sharma, the Indian Minister of Commerce and
Industry, during his keynote lecture in Berlin at the invitation
of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung, October 7, 2010
India and Germany have formed close economic
links over the past decades of cooperation. Within
the EU, Germany is India’s biggest trading partner.
Economic ties between both countries have intensified
and become more dynamic in recent years. Germany
largely exports machinery, chemical and electrical
products, aircraft, precision equipment and optical
goods. From India Germany imports textiles, chemical
products, leather goods, food items, iron and ironware
as well as automobiles.
Despite the rapid progress it has made in recent years,
India continues to be a developing nation with vast
disparities between rich and poor. There is also a huge
urban-rural divide. To overcome these disparities the
German government has, for over 50 years, been
working on the issues of environmental and resource
protection as well as energy and sustainable develop-
ment. This cooperation is commissioned by the Federal
Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development
(BMZ) and implemented by the Foreign Ministry and
Reconstruction Credit Institute (KfW) with regard to
investments and by the Gesellschaft für Internatio-
nale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) with regard to advisory
services.4
In addition to the German Foreign Ministry, the politi-
cal foundations – among them the Konrad-Adenauer-
Stiftung – also play an important role in German
foreign policy towards India. For over 40 years the
KAS has been engaged in fostering bilateral relations

between the two countries. The focus areas and
objectives of the KAS India Country Programme and
SAARC regional cooperation emerge from a highly
nuanced overall concept that takes into account India’s
complexity and the heterogeneity of its regions.
Germany and India acknowledge the special signifi-
cance of contacts between their parliamentarians and
favor an augmentation of these contacts for shaping
the relations between both countries. Both sides also
consider it meaningful to intensify the Indo-German
dialogue at the non-governmental level. The same is
true of cooperation between India and the European
Union. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Chancellor
Angela Merkel have agreed on this within the frame-
work of their strategic partnership. The KAS has been
pro-active in ensuring the continuity and intensifica-
tion of the dialogue between India, Germany and the
EU. It is in the interests of both Germany and India
to combat and find solutions to the prime challenges
in the security sector. A dialogue about the concrete
implementation of measures can be conducted within
a bilateral, regional as well as international format.
On-going efforts need to be made to build trust
between the actors. The KAS makes a significant
contribution in this context. It is one of the declared
goals of the Foundation to work towards upholding
and fostering the shared values between India and
Germany. It requires the commitment of social forces
at all levels to secure these liberal democratic achieve-
ments and pass them on to future generations.

DIALOGUE WITH
GERMANY
K AS PROGRA MM E S IN GE RMANY
The Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung supports and complements its work in India by organizing rele-
vant visiting and education programmes in Germany. The dialogue with political parties and
the parliament forms the thematic focus of the study and exchange programmes. Further focus
areas include programmes for legal experts on issues such as constitutional and administrative
jurisdiction, combating corruption and internal security. The broad range of issues on which the
KAS works globally is reflected in the programmes, that encompass areas such as the inter-faith
dialogue, promotion of independent media, local self government and the concept of social
market economy. In 2010 a study and information programme on current issues pertaining to
Indo-German and Indo-European relations was conducted in Berlin, Strasbourg and Brussels
for members of parliament from India. Similarly, young Indian journalists – graduates of the
Statesman School of Journalism – were able to acquaint themselves with Germany’s media lands-
cape at the invitation of the KAS.
Indian experts also participated in a seminar in Germany on “social market economy” for political
leaders from Asia, and India was represented at both the annual International Law Conference
organized by the KAS in Bonn and the regularly held international “Summer School” for young
politicians.
The KAS’ scholarship department provides assistance to talented researchers from India in the
areas of public policy, economics, science and media as well as in the spheres of culture and asso-
ciation work. By doing so the Foundation is investing not just in the future of these young people
