India’s fresh $1 billion credit to help Sri Lanka’s struggling economy is good diplomacy. India may not have the wallet to match China’s but its intentions aren’t usurious or extortionist and that should comfort strategic partners in the neighbourhood. It’s good that the drift in New Delhi-Colombo ties is ending.
