Since Joseph Nye introduced the concept of soft power, discussions in international relations have consistently included the soft power capabilities of nations. In today’s geopolitical landscape, many emerging countries are actively working to project their soft power on the global stage. Governments employ public diplomacy to inform and influence foreign public opinion, thus furthering their foreign policy objectives. This involves engaging diasporic communities, utilizing transnational broadcasting, and implementing international exchange programmes to promote a positive image of the country worldwide. India, with its vast population and significant youth demographic, faces the dual challenge of managing life and livelihood in the post-pandemic world. However, its extensive diaspora, spanning 146 countries and numbering 32.1 million individuals, presents an invaluable resource for building India’s global stature by showcasing its traditional values and modern achievements. By fostering smart partnerships between the government and civil society, India has laid the groundwork for leveraging its diaspora’s potential effectively. This chapter explores how India can harness its diasporic community and utilize digital diplomacy strategies to address post-pandemic challenges and propel itself towards superpower status. Through historical analysis and case studies, it seeks to provide insights into India’s journey from a major power to a global leader, while also sending a message to its neighbours and the international community.
