The Rise of China globally is an important development in the post-Cold war era. There is a debate among the scholars and politicians that whether its rise and becoming a power at regional level would be peaceful or violent. According to the logic of strategy given by Edward Luttwak, China would opt for economic or military development. In this case China since Deng era is developing on the economic side; Militarily China is not much developed to challenge Japan, ASEAN countries, India and others. In the South Asian region, China has increased its influence through the project of Belt and Road Initiative, which has thus given a chance to the smaller regional countries to get rid of the Indian traditional influence in the region. China Pakistan Economic Corridor is the largest Chinese investment in South Asia. This would not only develop Pakistan economically but militarily it will also support Pakistan to balance Indian influence in the region. Pakistan is the only country that can deter Indian hegemony in the region. China also wants to balance India through Pakistan. This would open the door for the new alliance formation between India and US, and Pakistan and China respectively. There may increase regional rivalry but due to the nuclear weapons, war in the near future is not likely to happen between China and India
