Wednesday, November 26, 2003 Permanent membership not for India - Business Standard "India's aspiration to join the privileged elite in the Security Council is consistent with its conduct as an independent country. Its ruling classes did not demolish the colonial apparatus when the British left, but simply took it over. It condemned the nuclear weapons of bigger powers but strove to acquire them too. So it is but 'natural' that instead of seeking the abolition of permanent membership of the Security Council as a matter of principle, what India really wants is to join privileged few and feel it has 'arrived'." |
