But frankly i am against India joining the cooperation,frankly how much it profit India to be in such a cooperation.
As we know Pakistan is also about to become a member,with both China and Pakistan we share turbulent history and I dont think by just joining one more organization we can forget that past.
More over we will be pressed on Kashmir issue also while being in SCO.
Many in south Asia consider this as a military alliance,and a developing counter weight to NATO,frankly we all know how absurd is that claim.
They claim of providing regional security against terrorism and piracy,how will it unfold once both India and Pakistan will be part of the league,as India consider Pakistan as the reason for its terrorism problem and Pakistan considering India the reason for its Baluchistan problem.
The only influential members in the league are Russia and China(economical consideration's),both of them are already part of BRICS considered the next economic behemoth,and to an extent Kazakhstan with whom we already have good ties including nuclear trade.
SCO will be only worthy for us,if it can influence Pakistan to open it's supply routes to Central Asia for us,eventually I dont see that to happening.
