Why India did not sign non-proliferation treaty?

Three states-India, Israel, and Pakistan-have declined to sign the treaty. India and Pakistan are confirmed nuclear powers, and Israel has a long-standing policy of deliberate ambiguity (see List of countries with nuclear weapons). These countries argue that the NPT creates a club of "nuclear haves" and a larger group of "nuclear have-nots" by restricting the legal possession of nuclear weapons to those states that tested them before 1967, but the treaty never explains on what ethical grounds such a distinction is valid. India and Pakistan have publicly announced possession of nuclear weapons and have detonated nuclear devices in tests, India having first done so in 1974 and Pakistan following suit in 1998 in response to another Indian test. India is estimated to have enough fissile material for more than 150 warheads. Pakistan reportedly has between 80 and 120 warheads according to the former head of its strategic arms division.[15]India is one of the few countries to have a no first use policy, a pledge not to use nuclear weapons unless first attacked by an adversary using nuclear weapons. The main reason India cites for not signing the NPT and for possessing nuclear weapons is that China is one of the "nuclear haves."[citation needed] China and India have a longstanding border dispute, including a border war in 1962.


Is the Indo-US atomic energy agreement gives advantages to India or disadvantages to India?

As concerned to India 123 agreement is more important at this moment because since the pokhran nuclear test of 1974,successive us administrations undertook a concerted effort to coerce us to cap,roll back and eliminate our nuclear weapons programme. This effort included putting together a cartel of 45 countries in the NUCLEAR SUPPLIING GROUP (NSG) to join us in denying us to access to nuclear technology for power genaration. Despite this we have built our oun nuclear reactors.we have large resources of plutonium from power reactors.unfortunately our capabilities to develop nuclear energy are seriously constrained by the shortage of indigenious resources of uranium ore this ore is indispensable and inevitable to generate nuclear energy.this necessarly means that if we are to significantly develop nuclear power production we will ave to import consideable amount of uranium ore -an option we cannot exercise now because of NSG sanction. So it gives advantage to both. Answered by- shaik riyaz riyakther@yahoo.co.in Edited by-Mihir Khandekar (mihir29)
