Bill > SR48

This Resolution respectfully urges the United Nations to grant India a permanent seat on its Security Council, which is a principal body of the United Nations (UN) responsible for maintaining international peace and security. The UN Security Council currently has 15 members, including five permanent members with veto power (China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States) and ten non-permanent members serving two-year terms. The resolution highlights India's significant contributions to the UN, including its large population, status as the world's largest democracy, growing economic and military power, and substantial participation in UN peacekeeping missions, arguing that these factors warrant its inclusion as a permanent member to better represent global powers and challenges in the 21st century.
