There're. If India is more cooperative on OBOR projects relevant with his neighbors, the projects will be implemented more smoothly and quickly because India like to threaten his small neighbors, e.g. Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, and India even screwed up his relationship with Nepal, a very small country. However, this won't stop the projects, they will succeed anyway. The point here is, Indian policitian's top priority is to stay in power and get votes. Any aggressive foreign policy to "retaliate" to China or Pakistan is considered a "WIN" due to India's aggressive nationalism. India's "face" is much important than their actual interest in this sense.

CPEC pass through Azad Kashmir not IOK. You consider India will fully control Kashmir ? Sorry, no chance. There's no military solution for Kashmir issue. The status quo will last for a very long time, probably 50 years, or even more than 100 years if India still unite as a single nation. Both sides won't compromise. So India will keep Kashmir people poor and make them revolt to against you? Make IOK prosperous is the only way to make IOK happily stay together with you, otherwise it's like a sword stabbing into you, you will be bleeding all the time. They will eventually split from India. I know you won't listen to me anyway.

You are still not understand, China's interference in our core interest also it's recognized as a disputed area internationally,

we are not against CPEC or OBOR, my question is why it's can't through China and Pakistan boarder,

when you are asking other to respect your sovereignty then you should also respect ours sovereignty,

also IOK problem is happening only in Sri Nagar, other part of IOK people are Happy with India

More ever we will take control over Kashmir but will take time that's it,

There is suppose to be a future rail line linking India via Nepal. It appears to be popular for Indians who prefer rail cargo to Europe instead sea/air route.

We will be more than glad to work with China, if there is a rail link coming through the eastern parts of our territory and flowing down to either the Bay of Bengal or traverse India and the western part into the Arabian Sea. The CPEC though is a no go.

China today said it would like India to be part of the Belt and Road Initiative(BRI) that seeks to link Asia with Europe, adding if concerns of sovereignty over the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor was a hurdle, they would be “resolved.”

“India is an important partner of the Belt and Road Initiative. It was, remains and will be so in the future,” Liu Jinsong, minister at the Embassy of China in India, said.

“Without hesitation, the Chinese side sincerely invites the Indian side to join many BRI forums, including the Forum to be held next month,” Liu said.

“If this (concerns over China-Pakistan Economic Corridor) is the only reason that affects Indian friends’ will to join the Belt and Road Initiative, this concern could be resolved,” he said.

He was addressing a conference on “The Belt and Road Initiative: India’s perspectives on China’s ambitious plan for infrastructural connectivity in Asia, Africa and Europe,” organised by Observer Research Foundation here.

“Transportation is the basis of CPEC, and connectivity between China and Pakistan will unavoidably pass through Azad Kashmir area,” he said.

“China has no intention to interfere in territorial and sovereignty disputes between India and its neighbours,” he said, adding that China’s position on the Kashmir issue has not changed either.

“President Xi Jinping will host the Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation from May 14 to 15 in Beijing. Leaders of 28 countries and the UN Secretary-General will attend the Forum,” he said.

Referring to the debate on whether India should join the Belt and Road Initiative, he said, “India has always been on the Belt and Road”, and cited travels of explorers from both the countries.

“The Belt and Road Initiative is an inheritance, revival and upgrade of the ancient Silk Route,” he said.

The two countries should resume common efforts and work to revive the Silk Route, he said.

“In 2013, President Xi Jinping proposed the Belt and Road Initiative as well as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), which aims to provide financial support for infrastructure construction in countries along the BRI routes,” he said.

“India gave a positive response to China’s proposal and held the second round of negotiation working group meeting in Mumbai. India contributed 8 billion US dollars and became the second largest shareholder at the AIIB,” he said.

“Over 40 countries have signed the BRI cooperation agreements with China. At the Forum next month, another over 40 countries and international organisations will discuss and sign cooperation agreements with China,” he said.

“China and India, each with over 1.3 billion people, are still not connected by railways,” he said.

There are only 40-plus direct flights between the two countries each week, considerably less than 1,000 direct flights per week between China and South Korea, he said.

Liu also referred to reports of a 61-year-old postman journeying through the Nathula Pass to exchange mail bags every day for 25 years, calling him “a civil envoy” promoting China-India friendship and connectivity.

Where is the link?

No no. We are here for the show, we will sob on how we missed the opportunity later on.

If CPEC is removed from being a part of BRI, I don't see why India should not be a part of BRI.

India needs infrastructure investment but had to refuse CPEC due to Kashmir
