Why do some countries question the issue of India’s inclusion as a permanent member of the U.N. Security Council? Explain
India’s inclusion as a permanent member of the U.N. Security Council is always questioned for the following reasons: Some nations are worried about India’s nuclear weapons capabilities. Some other nations are of the view that Indo- Pak relations will make India as ineffective as a permanent member. It is feared that some emerging powers such as Brazil, Germany, and Japan, etc. have to be accommodated if India is included. There are those who feel that Africa and South America must be represented in any expansion of the permanent membership.
