How far is India from UN Security Council?

In the recent months, Prime Minister Modi has strongly articulated the need for India’s inclusion in the elite United Nation Security Council. It is inconceivable that world’s largest democracy, representing one-sixth of the humanity, is absent, in the Security Council, he reiterated. A sizeable number of UN member countries too have voiced the express need for UNSC restructuring, as it no longer reflects the transformations in global power, since 1945. The incumbent Government may be going hammer and tong about the likely inclusion of India in the UN high table, but the pipe dream of the Modi Government is set for turbulent times ahead.
