520 |a In the cosmic of international relations, foreign assistance is an action initiated by a country whereby it voluntarily transfers resources to another country. Foreign assistance in theory and practice has multifaceted meanings and implications. It may be considered as a tool for accelerating diplomatic ties, a gesture of appreciating the contributions of a foreign nation, modus operandi for resource extraction, pursue foreign policy goals and also a mechanism used for altruistic and humanitarian reasons. India’s stand on foreign assistance during the time of catastrophic 2018 Kerala floods is aborting the state government’s endeavours to receive financial support from UAE for its reconstruction and rehabilitation works. With an estimated loss of Rs 20,000 crores, Kerala government is struggling hard with the miniscule support received as financial aid from the central government. New Delhi’s stand in this regard is against the spirit of cooperative federalism in the Indian constitution. Cooperative federalism works on the premise that national, state and regional governments work collectively by accommodating each other’s policy preferences in a cooperative spirit. For the successful functioning of democracy in the pluralistic country like India, cooperative federalism is a prerequisite. In this context, this paper intends to throw insights on various aspects of foreign aid and cooperative federalism. This paper also tries to critically analyse the Indian government’s stand on foreign assistance during Kerala flood.
