India wants to be seen as ‘non proliferation’ state, but won’t sign the Nuclear non Proliferation Treaty

India pitches for membership of global non-proliferation regimes Indrani Bagchi, Times of India | Apr 19, 2012, NEW DELHI: India on Wednesday made the most persuasive case for India’s “full membership” of the global non-proliferation regimes. In a major policy statement, foreign secretary Ranjan Mathai told a gathering of nuclear experts that “the logical conclusion of partnership with India is its full
membership of the four multilateral regimes.”..

.. India’s membership is not an easy decision. First, there is an NPT adherence that is seen

  1. you don’t have to worry about India’s nuclear plans, First of all they have no uranium to run 17 of their 20 nuclear power plants and how thye will run Koodankulam with not one Indian nuclear physicist with a valid Ph.D and again with shortage of uranium is a BIG Question??? Besides all our stuff is ANCIENT AND OUTDATED like our way of using nuclear madness for generating electricity when all the world is going full steam into remewables…so really the world has nothing to fear from us…heck we couldn’t even put away to death this terrorist Kasab even though he was found with a gun in his hand blowing up people at the Taj in Bombay….so what nuclear missile is this country talking about???
