Our geography is best... we have very easy access to energy rich middle east in the west.... in future we may even directly connect ourselves with any middle east nation with a direct pipeline to bring oil and gas... remember we were on the verge of doing it with Iran in past?Such an easy target vulnerable to the attacks from all sides, no strategic rear, no wonder the land was being colonized by varies colonizers from everywhere for the most part of its history.
On east we have bay of Bengal and sit on the mouth of strategically important malacca strait.... in the south we have Indian Ocean and are blessed with large open water bodies with no obstacles like Chinese islands chains under the control of enemies and single coastline in the far eastern corner of the globe....
In the past it was easy for British to colonize as people were illiterate and India had many independent kingdoms with many were on the constant wars with each other where British devide and rule worked.... it has nothing to do with geography.... in fact your geography is so compromised that tiny Japan could run over a huge chunk of your land and took your people as their servants....
