New Delhi:  Notwithstanding China objecting to India’s entry into Nuclear Suppliers Group, Prime Minister Narendra Modi  on Monday exuded confidence that the country will get membership of the bloc and the process for it has begun on a “positive note”.
Modi said India has a number of problems with China and efforts are on to resolve them one-by-one through talks.
Asked during an interview whether he was disappointed as China blocked India’s bid for membership of the NSG and how close it was to getting it, Modi only said things will move forward as per rules.
The Prime Minister said successive governments have made consistent efforts for getting membership of the UN Security Council, Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) and NSG “First thing is that India has taken up such efforts consistently whichever government was in power — be it membership of UN Security Council, SCO or MTCR or NSG. All of us made efforts. “It is not only this government which has done this. This is in continuity. It is true that in our tenure, SCO has been achieved, MTCR membership has been achieved. I am fully confident that we have begun efforts in the direction of the NSG (membership), formally.”
