Abstract | The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) has emerged as the predominant body within the UN, and the inclusion of veto power has further enhanced its appeal to member states. For a long time, there is a growing chorus of nations advocating for reforms within the UNSC, aiming to expand the number of permanent seats. Numerous countries, possessing significant global influence, remain unrepresented in the UNSC. In this context, India presents a compelling case for attaining permanent membership, alongside the other G4 countries. Even prior to gaining independence, India actively participated in the UN and made substantial contributions, surpassing many other nations. As the world’s largest democracy, India has played a proactive role in promoting global peace and security. During the era of the Cold War, while much of the world was engulfed in conflict, India pursued a policy of non-alignment with certain nations in order to avoid war. Notably, a considerable number of influential countries have expressed their support for India’s permanent seat. India was elected as a non-permanent member for the eighth time and India just completed its last term in December 2022. Over the past decade, India has undergone remarkable transformations across various aspects, positioning itself prominently on the global stage. Even India is hosting its G20 presidency for the year 2023. The G-20 presidency has positioned India favorably, particularly at a time when the international community seeks an alternative to the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) due to its inaction caused by the veto power. Against this backdrop, this study majorly examines India’s argument for permanent membership as a strong contender from Asia with the other G4 nations, its likelihood of being admitted after objections from a few other powerful nations, and the benefits of India being admitted permanently to the Security Council. Further, it also highlights the implications for international security of extending the UN Security Council. Lastly, it also looks into the arguments if India can use G20 as the substitute for UNSC. |
