India has dismissed talks of differences with other BASIC nations particularly China at the climate change talks in Durban. The BASIC group which comprimises Brazil, South Africa, India and China, has been negotiating with other countries to try and secure a second round of commitment from the Developed Nations under an extended Kyoto Protocol
