India enters Missile Technology Control Regime group

Getting one ahead towards the NSG membership India becomes the 35th member of the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR). It is a win for Prime Minister Narendra Modi as he meets US President Barack Obama in Washington.   

The 34-nation group to object to India's admission had expired on Monday without any of them raising objections.

Admission to the MTCR would open the way for India to buy high-end missile technology, also making more realistic its aspiration to buy state-of-the-art surveillance drones such as the US Predator.
