The main causes of India’s inclination towards the Soviet Union were the following : 

  • In 1971 when Pakistan was threatening to wage war and China sided with Pakistan and USA also decided to stay neutral, India’s inclination became towards Soviet Union and India signed a treaty with Soviet Union. 
  • The first prime minister of India Jawahar Lai Nehru was also interested in communism from the beginning. 
  • America favoured Pakistan in the matter of Kashmir and provided military aid to it. Due to this also, India’s inclination towards Soviet Union increased.
