Wassenaar Arrangement Strengthens India’s place as responsible nuclear power


India’s entry into Wassenaar arrangement a multilateral export Control  regime  as 42nd participating member is a big step in getting its membership in NSG group and to become a great nuclear power. This great achievement has been achieved by India just after a year after getting membership in MTCR. As a non-signatory member to the Nuclear Non proliferation Treaty (NPT) New Delhi has been at turmoil and was not getting comfortable to convey to international community about it. 

The Wassenar arrangement was founded in year 1996 and it is like the other main groups like MTCR ,NSG and the Australia group. It states that “to contribute to regional and international stability and security, by promoting transparency and greater responsibility in transfer of conventional arms and dual user goods and technologies, thus preventing destablishing accumulation “It has been seen as one of the great achievement of India at world level. One of the important things here is that China is not the member of Wassenar arrangement however India got its membership.
