India condemns the Uniting for Consensus (UfC) group's UN Security Council reform model, advocating for a more representative "UN 2.0." Permanent Representative Ruchira Kamboj urges for equitable representation of the Global South and Africa. She questions the UfC's opposition to expanding permanent seats, emphasizing Africa's call for inclusion. India, part of the G4 nations, proposes increasing the Council's membership. Kamboj criticizes the UfC's stance on pre-negotiation consensus, citing its veto-like approach. India asserts the need for checks and balances to address imbalances between permanent and non-permanent members, emphasizing empowerment for developing countries.
