DMPQ- Explain the Indian policy of Peaceful Settlement of International Disputes

One of the core elements of India’s foreign policy is its unflinching faith in the political solution and peaceful settlement of international disputes.

This principle has been included in the Constitution of India, under the Directive Principles of State Policy as well as in the Charter of the UN.

India has played leading role in the resolution of Korean conflict and supported negotiated settlement of Palestine issue, Kashmir problem, border problems with neighboring countries and other such disputes and problems.

At present, India is in favour of resolution of peaceful settlement of Iranian nuclear issue, problem of democratic upsurge in Middle East and so on. India is always against foreign military intervention for resolving international problems. This principle continues to be the cornerstone of India’s policy.
