| Abstract | In contemporary international relations Climate change diplomacy has become a defining feature as states negotiate mitigation, adaptation, finance, and technology transfer within an increasingly complex global governance architecture. India played pivotal role in this regime, balancing developmental imperatives, energy security, and poverty alleviation with growing international prospect for climate action. This paper offers a comprehensive analytical study of India’s climate change diplomacy by examining its negotiating strategies, coalition politics, domestic–international linkages, and evolving role across key multilateral agreements from the UNFCCC and Kyoto Protocol to the Paris Agreement and post-Paris developments. Analysis on the basis of existing scholarly literature, policy documents, and recent developments, the study argues that India’s climate diplomacy reflects a balanced position from a predominantly defensive posture to a proactive yet equity-centered engagement. Although India has demonstrated leadership through ambitious domestic and international initiatives along with partnerships, persistent challenges related to climate finance, technology transfer, and just transition continue to shape its negotiating stance. The paper concludes that India’s emphasis on equity, CBDR–RC, and climate justice remains central to forging a more equitable, inclusive and credible global climate regime. |
