Abstract
Today’s changing global geo-political shift needs a change in the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) to become more efficient and neutral in functioning and legitimacy. The purpose of this research is to focus on the facts and rationale behind the need to alter the UNSC and the change brought within it by increasing numbers of permanent members. Also to highlight the repercussions that Pakistan would have to face if India achieves a permanent status. For the last few decades debates continued about increasing the permanent members of UNSC and mainly four countries (India, Germany, Japan, Brazil) creating a Group of 4(G-4) are highly aspirant for a permanent seat. India in this regard being a strong aspirant whether fulfills the anticipated criteria keeping in view the nature of relations with traditional rival neighbor Pakistan. Such rival-natured historical relations of India and Pakistan created a deep sense of insecurity in Pakistan if India is going to have a permanent seat in UNSC. This is because India always remains hostile and aggressive both regionally and globally to harm the image of Pakistan both politically and economically. One of the most important reasons for rivalry is the internationally recognized issue of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) which is yet to be solved but not followed by the Indian side according to the UNSC resolution. So Pakistan would have severe implications in terms of politics, economy and geo-strategic as well if India became a permanent member of the UNSC. Yet, the Indian Strategy for achieving an important position in UNSC has become a question mark in this regard.
