Nuclear Weapons Club

National Technology Day 2021 marks India’s entry into the elite club of nuclear-armed nations. Former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee declared May 11 as the National Technology Day after India conducted three successful nuclear tests at the Indian Army’s Pokhran Test Range in Rajasthan under Operation Shakti in 1998.

China on Friday said that there would be no discussion on India's entry into the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) before reaching a specific plan on participation of members who have not signed the treaty on the Non-Proliferation of nuclear weapons (NPT) in the elite grouping.

India on Friday joined the 42-member Australia Group, an elite export control regime against spread of chemical and biological weapons that could fortify New Delhi's efforts to become a member of the Nuclear Suppliers Group.

The US is working "very closely" with international partners to secure India's Nuclear Suppliers Group membership, its envoy Kenneth Juster said today and hoped that New Delhi would join the Australia Group on chemical and biological weapons in the "very near future".

As China claimed support from "several members" to block India's entry into the Nuclear Suppliers Group or NSG, the US has come forward to back India's bid to join the exclusive club of nuclear trading nations.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu used his annual United Nations address on Thursday to launch an all-out assault on the historic nuclear deal with Iran, warning that his country would never let the Islamic Republic join the nuclear weapons club.
