Formation of Non-Alignment (Nam) with Special Emphasis on the Role of India and its Relevance in Today’s Context

Prakhar Prabhat Srivastav

The concept of Non-Alignment propounded by the developing nations during the reign of cold war, who decided not to align with either of the power blocs in order to safeguard their national and economic interest and to protect their national sovereignty and freedom as most of them had recently gained freedom from the shackles of imperialism or colonialism. Throughout the course of this article, I have tried to examine the origin of NAM with special emphasis on the role of India because non-alignment is often considered as the brainchild of India’s first Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru and have also tried to examine the relevance of NAM after 60 years of its formal announcement at the Belgrade Conference of 1961.
