The following abstract is a part of the paper ' The power dynamics of South Asia: Chinese dominance and its various aspects' which tries to analyse the Chinese actions which signal China as a potential Superpower in the Indian Ocean Region (IOR) and it's possible rise of a global superpower which has been a constant challenge to India in the Asian dynamics of Politics, economy &geography. The repeated &strengthening claims of China over various island masses Streching from Bejing to Horn of Africa or be it the expansion over land through its initiatives like Belt & Road initiative (BRI) & Silk Route has also rung a bell to the American dominance in the region. The paper thus tries to bring out the different ways of Chinese dominance which has encircled India creating a 'string of pearls'which alarm India of the constant presence of China in the Indian Ocean.
