Did Nehru give China the seat for India in the UN Security Council?
China did not allow Masood Azhar, the founder of the terrorist organization Jaish-e-Mohammad, to be declared a global terrorist from the United Nations. China is a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council and vetoed on the proposal of France.
China has done it for the fourth time and it is seen as a major setback for India. On February 14, Jaish-e-Mohammad killed 40 soldiers in a CRPF convoy attacking a suicide bomber in Pulwama district of India-administered Kashmir.
The responsibility for this attack was taken by JeM himself and it was expected that this time China will stand with India on Masood Azhar.
India has expressed grief over the Chinese stand, the main opposition party Congress President Rahul Gandhi has targeted the government for this. Modi did not get a word from the mouth of the people, if China took action against India. "The BJP has strongly objected to Rahul Gandhi's remark on this comment.
Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said that if the country is in difficult, then why is Rahul Gandhi happy?
Prasad, in his press conference, showing a copy of a report of 'The Hindu' of 9 January 2004 , said that India's first Prime Minister, Nehru, had refused to take the seat of the Security Council in the United Nations and had given it to China.
In the report of The Hindu, the reference was given to the book "Nehru-The Invention of India" by the Congress leader and the general secretary of the United Nations, Shashi Tharoor.
In this book, Shashi Tharoor has written that around 1953 India had received a proposal to become a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council but they gave it to China. Tharoor has written that Indian diplomats had seen that file which was referring to Nehru's denial. According to Tharoor, Nehru advocated giving the UN seat to China after Taiwan.
In fact, Ravi Shankar Prasad wanted to say that if China is a permanent member of the UN Security Council today, then India is facing the consequences of Nehru and the same.
However, many people believe that those who criticize Nehru about this thing ignore many other facts. The United Nations was formed in 1945 and the organization associated with it was taking shape.
When the members of the Security Council were formed in 1945, India was not even free. On September 27, 1955, Nehru had clearly dismissed the Parliament that India had received an informal proposal to become a permanent member of the Security Council.
In response to questions of Dr JN Parekh on September 27, 1955, Nehru had said in Parliament, "There was no formal or informal proposal to become a permanent member of the Security Council in the UN. Some suspicious references are being cited in which there is no truth. In the United Nations, the Security Council was formed under the UN Charter, and it had permanent membership in certain countries. There can be no change in the charter without modification or any new member. There is no question that there was a seat given to India and India refused to take it. Our declared policy is to include all the countries eligible to become members of the United Nations. "
What is history?
It is said that in the 1950s, India was a great supporter of China's involvement in the United Nations Security Council. Then this seat was with Taiwan.
Since the emergence of the People's Republic of China in 1949, China's representative Chiang Kai-shek was ruled by the Republic of China, not Mother's People's Republic of China. The United Nations refused to give this seat to the People's Republic of China.
Shashi Tharoor has written in his book that India's Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru was the one who advocated the People's Republic of China for making permanent members in the United Nations.
Nehru supported the People's Republic of China?
Some believe that Nehru did this to please Mao in the 1950s in the wake of agitation between the two countries.
Others argue that for the sake of solidarity among Asian countries, Nehru put a wrong place in excitement, because on seeing the history of both countries, it is understood that China and India have been partners in this historic journey.
Roughly, many see it as a reduction in Nehru's assessment of idealism and the realities of international relations. They believe that strength matters and there is a need to work wisely for this.
The diplomat wrote in a report, "Although those who argued this, they have failed to know the reasons behind Nehru in supporting the People's Republic of China in the United Nations. They do not know that Nehru used to read so much about history and the balance of power among the nations was very important for him.
From that time on, Nehru believed that big powers should not stay away from their friends, but they should be included in international organizations.
Nehru believed that after the First World War, Germany was treated unfairly, and the spirit of insult and boycott brought him closer to another disgruntled USSR.
Nehru was clear about the fact that the People's Republic of China is no ordinary power.
In the diploma , South Asian University, Assistant Professor Nabarun Roy of the Department of International wrote, "In April 1922 Germany signed the Rappollah Treaty with Russia, which increased tension in Europe. But Britain, in time, helped him to become a member of the League of Nations in 1926. Despite this, the Great Depression made it a threat to global stability again. It was clear to Nehru that the People's Republic of China was no ordinary power.
Therefore, it should be adjusted in global politics because if it is not done then it can later become dangerous in an unexpected way. This was the biggest argument that led the Nehru's stand on the permanent membership of China in the Security Council. "
Roy wrote, "Nehru believed that" because of the new China, the balance of power has changed not only in the east but throughout the world, therefore, not just adjusting the People's Republic of China in world politics is not only stupidity but dangerous Nehru believed that if the People's Republic of China was excluded from the United Nations, then the UN's decisions will not affect China.
It is said in international relations that as a country becomes strong, its ambition also increases.
India too has not been different in this case. In recent times, its military and economic power has increased, in such a way that its desire to play a larger role in world politics has also increased.
One of these is that India has consistently been demanding a permanent seat in the United Nations Security Council for the last few days.
Indian leaders have made sincere efforts in various forums including the United Nations General Assembly, so that the qualifications of India as a permanent member of the international community is expressed.
The results of these efforts are also not completely disappointing. Major powerful countries such as USA, UK, France and Russia have expressed their support on many occasions about India's membership.
However, China has been a tough opponent. Given the recent developments, it is not surprising, because on some occasions the relationship between the two countries has come to an end.
Both share a long dispute, and in 2017, there was a situation like deadlock and a ceasefire between the two countries in Dokalmal.
India and China are engaged in finding strategic targets for footsteps in South Asian and Indian Ocean areas.
