Boost for India`s NSG membership |
India today become a member of the `Australia Group` (AG), a move that is expected to raise New Delhi`s stature in the field of non-proliferation and also help it acquire critical technologies. Thus, India is now a member of the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR), the Wassenaar Arrangement (WA) as well as AG, three of four non-proliferation regimes. The only one remaining is the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG). India has managed entry into all three groups despite not being a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), and despite China`s attempts to stonewall its bid to enter the NSG.
