The Silent Chanakya: Why Chanakya’s Timeless Wisdom Matters More Than Ever in a World of Shifting Global Alliances

Having authored over 30 articles and five research papers on geopolitics, Tanmay has spent years studying India’s evolving role in global affairs. His work has been presented at academic forums, recognised internationally at the International Economic Convention, and has contributed to policy-oriented research, including the Confederation of Indian Industry’s Vision for Smart Manufacturing initiative. His latest book, The Silent Chanakya: India’s Strategic Playbook of Patience and Power, argues that India’s contemporary foreign policy reflects timeless principles first articulated by Chanakya in the Arthashastra.

According to Tanmay, the biggest misconception about Chanakya is that he is remembered only as an ancient political philosopher. In reality, his strategic framework continues to offer valuable insights into how nations navigate an increasingly uncertain and multipolar world…

These observations form the foundation of Tanmay Saukur’s new book, The Silent Chanakya: India’s Strategic Playbook of Patience and Power, which examines how India’s handling of issues involving the Maldives, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Bhutan, Nepal and the G20 reflects enduring principles of Chanakyan statecraft. Already an Amazon No. 1 Bestseller, the book presents geopolitics through an Indian strategic lens that is both historically rooted and deeply relevant to contemporary global affairs.
