Gwadar Port is the crown jewel of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, a flagship infrastructure project that adds to Chinese and Pakistani capability to threaten India's energy security. The port is located in Balochistan, Pakistan largest province, which has been grappling with security challenges.

THE WEEK speaks to Captain @Alok795, director, India Foundation, and author, Gwadar: A Chinese Gibraltor, on Gwadar's strategic importance, and how the port would allow Pakistan to keep an eye on the entire traffic to and from the crucial Persian Gulf.

Deepinder Goyal, Zomato
When I started Zomato in 2008, my father used to say “tu janta hai tera baap kaun hai” as my dad thought I could never do a start up given our humble background. This government and their initiatives enabled a small town boy like me to build something like Zomato, which employs lakhs of people today!
