India's security concerns over China's naval presence in the Indian Ocean, particularly in Sri Lanka, have been highlighted due to previous incidents of China using spy ships disguised as research vessels. The concerns stem from the data that Chinese vessels can access, potentially aiding the deployment of warships and submarines in the future. The U.S. and India are seeking ways to coordinate and cooperate in South Asia amidst China's assertive behavior. A senior U.S. official visited India to discuss an alleged plot to kill a Sikh separatist, with India forming an investigative panel to probe the unsuccessful assassination attempt. The indictment against an Indian official for an alleged transnational assassination program targeting opponents in foreign countries has raised scrutiny over India's actions. The allegations have the potential to impact U.S.-Indian relations at a critical juncture.
