प्रश्न
Why has India refused to sign the C.T.B.T.?

India has opposed international treaties aimed at non-proliferation because they were selectively applicable to the non-nuclear powers and legitimised the monopoly of five nuclear powers. Thus, India opposed NPT in 1995 and refused to sign the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT).
