United Nations: India will bring transparency, credibility and effectiveness to the UN Security Council, the country's envoy has said, underlining the strong support it has received demonstrates the confidence the international community has in its capability to contribute to the powerful UN organ. India garnered 184 votes out of the 192 ballots cast in the General Assembly on Wednesday to win the poll for the non-permanent seat in the Council. India's 2-year term will begin on January 1, 2021. This is the eighth time India will sit at the UN high-table, which comprises 5 permanent members and 10 non-permanent members. "The strong support at the election demonstrates the confidence the international community has in India's capability to contribute constructively to the work of the UNSC and the recognition of the fact that we are the world's largest democracy with strong commitment to international cooperation. We are grateful for this endorsement,” India’s Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador TS Tirumurti.
