India wants a permanent seat in the Security Council, and it wants to prove that it is a nation to reckon with. How about India's position among corrupt nations? Is bribery akin to a second Indian culture? India the land of virtue, birth place of many religions, rich in philosophy, can also be a slave of sycophancy! Yes, Mr. Shenoy, you have correctly analyzed India's foreign policy. The Late Pandit Nehru was an architect of India's doom, post independence, and Indian soldiers wearing the blue uniform of peace have also paid a price serving the UN, and the same organization still owes India millions of dollars for their upkeep. The UN is dead, and India should bury it. No need to send high powered delegates to the annual general assembly meetings, as it is waste of funds. India's prestige has gained no further feather, so why bother?
