India and Non-Aligned Movement (NAM)
India is a founder member of NAM. It participated actively in NAM meetings till 1970s but India’s inclination towards erstwhile USSR created confusion in smaller members.
It led to the weakening of NAM and small nations drifted towards either the US or USSR.
Further India’s New Economic Policy and inclination towards the US raised questions over India’s seriousness over non-alignment.
The disintegration of the USSR led to the unipolar world order dominated by the US.
