PM visit of Three Nations: What India got??

In recent concluded visit of 2+1 nation (as it was 2nation visit initially) by PM Narendra Modi was significant both diplomatically and politically.
His visit to Russia to attend the annual Indo-Russian summit was successful. There he signed 16 agreement including various important deals like purchasing of S400 missile system,re-negotiation of 5th gen aircraft(PAKFA), construction of nuclear power plant, manufacturing of more than 200 military helicopters in India under 'Make in India' campaign. This will be the biggest investment of defence under the most ambitious plan of PM. Also this will be the first time in history of Russia that their military choppers will be manufactured outside Russia. Next major deal for defence is purchasing of S400 missile air defence system. This is the most developed system which can intercept missile from 400km away and can take them down. After acquisition of this system entire Pakistan major airfield comes under it's radar. Also major portion of China also comes under its rader. China already have this system. So having this defence system gives us equality with China and superiority from Pakistan.
Next major deal of defence was negotiation of 5th gen aircraft(PAKFA) which both country is developing jointly.
In civilian sector, Russia will provide nuclear reactor for two power plant in India. Russia is already supplying reactor for Tamil Nadu's plant. Both country has been also agreed to explore Oil and Hydrocarbon in Russia jointly.


In the second phase of his visit PM visit Afghanistan where he inaugurate the new Parliament,which is constructed by India. He also addressed the Afghan Parliament where he assured all possible support for the development of Afghanistan. This was the political success for India as after the departure of NATO forces, Afghanistan is seeking for a reliable partner, and India is emerging as a reliable partner for war affected country.




Third and most successful visit(politically) of PM was  surprise visit of Pakistan. This was the first visit of an Indian PM since 2004. This visit is also welcomed by the opposition parties of Pakistan as well as world community. Although the discussion topic is not revealed, but this will resume the way of peace dialogue. As reports are indicating that foreign secretary level meeting is planned to be held in Islamabad next year. 
This sudden move of PM sets Pakistan on back foot. This visit gives India a step ahead and this will show the seriousness of India's relation to its neighbouring country. Also this surprise visit set opposition parties in India on back foot because few days ago they were demanding that PM is ignoring the neighbouring states. But this visit left them speechless.


So as per their tradition, they are now asking clarification on this visit as why PM does not let them know. Some news channels and their journalist are now have problem with this also. They are questioning what was the sudden change of mind that Modi visit Pakistan.


Some experts claimed that this was all set visit,but claimed to be surprised visit. But as far as its success is concerned it was 100% success for long term. Now if Pakistan withdraw or renegotiate the talks with new demand, it will tarnish their reputation and India will be backed by international community.


So as per conclusion,it is all in all win-win situation for India in both diplomatic as well as political.
