India and the U.N.?

Membership of Security Council without the Veto Power is like making a Forceful personality a 'KING without the CROWN'. Decades back the Western Powers had made a tiny country TAIWAN a member of Security Council in the absence of CHINA. It was only after the general world opinion weighed in favour of China that the Taiwan was replaced by CHINA. Obviously, China was also given Veto power. Now that Russia is not the powerful USSR any more that it is the Western Block, which moulds the United Nations to the way they want. India should not take the half baked cake now that the unsolicited 'TITLE/HONOUR' is being bestowed on the soon to be a 'Super Power' of the world a la China of the late sixties. I dont think that India should leave UN. Why should we? VINOD TULI
