ABSTRACT
This research studied India’s portrayal in the U.S. press over a 48-year period during and after the Cold War. It used the Indexing theory and framing. The study found significant difference in India’s portrayal on five frames: nuclear, trade, defence ties between India and the U.S.A, terrorism and separatist movements in India. The study concluded that the U.S. press portrayed India in accordance with official U.S. foreign policy stance on India during and after the Cold War. The findings of the current research gave support to the Indexing theory.
