    I suspect economic pragmatism will win in the end.

    As much as I would like to say that it will, I am not really hopeful in this regard. I’m Indian so I know many Indians. I can tell you that sinophobia and islamophobia has become a huge problem. A racist bourgeoisie ruled government should never be thought of as a reliable long-term partner. It is only a matter of time before they pull something stupid.

      They are not a reliable partner because India is being pragmatic, as in they are acting in their own interests. They are only reliable while it is in their interests; if the situation changes that it becomes less beneficial to India then they will certainly turn on China. Obviously their long-term partnership is not something to gamble on.
