India seeks to play a global role to match it;s growing economic stature.\n\nIt's bidding for a permanent seat in the UN security council.\n\nInterestingly, India was offered a permanent UN security council seat which it gave to China as show of friendship(bad decision) as china is now opposing India's bid.\n\nPakistan at this moment is trying to figure out whether it should support the jehadis fighting against US or it should support US and keep getting the aid on whcih it has survived for so many years.\n\nIndia is way ahead of Pakistan in all respects.

In which sense you are saying these two countries are greater then India?

Yes, India is more powerful than Pakistan in terms of military might. India has almost double the manpower and combat equipment as a previous poster has pointed out. But as another poster mentions, today, military might cannot be solely measured in terms of numbers. There are more factors that come into play.\nFor eg: Though India has a very large military, they have 3 hostile borders to defend (Pakistan, China and Bangladesh). So its large army's resources are stretched. Even if there's a conflict with Pakistan, India just cannot afford to dedicate its entire army to the conflict, it still has to maintain reasonable force levels at the Chinese and Bangla borders. Pakistan on the other hand, can dedicate almost all resources to the conflict with India. Iran and Afghanistan are not about to invade them from the other side and the Chinese are their best pals. They even share nuclear weapons technology clandestinely. So you see how..... though India's military is larger, Pakistan can match them almost equally if you consider the above.\nNow lets look at another angle.... the economies! Here, India wins hands down. Their economy can sustain a war for much longer than Pakistan. Pakistan just does not have the resources to withstand and sustain a war effort for long. If the Indian Navy were to blockade Karachi harbour, Pakistan would probably run out of oil within a month.\nAnyways, there are just too many such factors. If you look at the overall picture, India will still win any conflict with Pakistan... but eventually... as in, it may not be a cake-walk.

That's for the Indians to decide. They are the world's largest Democracy in terms of population though.

Why not?  India would be a perfect member in the UNSC.  India have proven that religion will not play a major role in its political decisions.  Maybe the world can learn from India.

Pakistan and India are not run by Islamic Extremist that are bent on harming others outside their countries.  These two nations fear each other, but do not threaten Israel, the United States, Russia or Western Europe.  Iran does!

Although I'm an Indian I think that both India and Pakistan are responsible for the Kashmir problem. Normally Indians blame Pakistan and Pakistanis blame India. It's not that simple. We must know what people of Kashmir want. Most of the Kashmiris want independence. However if India loses Kashmir it would be easier for terrorists to attack India. This is the reason why India can't let go of Kashmir

India is no little child that needs to suckle on America's tit!\nWe are quite capable of taking down Pakistan on our own,we did it without the US three times.Let Iran join the fight for kashmir,i doubt they have any reason to.\nKasmir is an issue that goes back to the time of independence for both the nations (India and Pakistan).\nWe are neighter liable to the US nor are we its lap dog.\n\nThe Indian government stated that the US need not interfear with intimate Iranian matters of state.The US swiftly acted on that descision as irrational and threatened to stop US investmenst in India.India has always been a follower of NAM (Non alligned Movement).\nWhich is a safety stand for a developing nation.We get oil form Iran and we have never had bad ties with any muslim nation other than Pakistan,we want to keep that track record straight.Its easier to do business that way.\nIndia should in no way be a subject to bullying and we wont.

Do you really think that they have to ask permission to the Americans? I think they too have the right to make their own political alliances.\n___\n\n"Many experts predict the new closeness between the world's only superpower and Islamabad's fiercest rival will prompt Pakistan to develop even closer ties with its longtime strategic security partner, China.\n\nPakistan needs a deterrent against India.\n\nThe animosity between the two countries dates to partition in August 1947, when the British divided their former colony into two states. India was meant to be a secular democracy and Pakistan, a homeland for South Asian Muslims. More than six million Muslims migrated to Pakistan, and more than four million Hindus and Sikhs moved to India. Tremendous violence and upheaval during the partition process left more than one million people dead.\nIn the half-century since, Pakistan and India have fought three wars and come close a few other times. The unresolved issue of the disputed territory of Kashmir and periodic military buildups on both sides have kept tensions high. Many Pakistanis still worry that India wants to reunite the territory under its control. Both countries tested nuclear weapons in 1998".\n\nQuoted from: \nChina and Pakistan: A Deepening Bond\nAuthor:Esther Pan\nMarch 8, 2006\nhttp://www.cfr.org/publication/10070/china_and_pakistan.html

If India was suddenly elected to the UN Security Council, Pakistan would have a fit. May I remind you both of these countries have nuclear weapons.
