Why was India involved in the cold war?

Opposing parties sought to expand their influence globally.

Explanation:

India, like many other countries of the world, sought to be drawn into the Cold War. The two biggest competitors, the Soviet Union and the United States, sought to win over Cold War partners outside Europe. Given its geostrategic position and wealth, India should have been drawn into two opposing blocs. Yet, the Indian government has decided not to opt for either side. On the contrary, she was the main initiator of the ideas of the Non-Aligned Movement. The movement found several countries opting for neutrality during the uncertain times of the Cold War.
