This two volume compendium recaptures India’s association with the United Nations Organization by bringing together the speeches of the leaders of the country’s delegations to the sessions of the United Nations General Assembly from 1946 to 2018. The Introduction to the volumes uses these speeches to delineate India’s steadfast faith in the United Nations and to identify the contours of India’s foreign policy, especially its attitude to the challenges for the stability of international order and the issues which are critical to make the world a better place to live in. The present documentation exercise has resulted in the publication of a crucial source-material for future studies on India’s engagement with the United Nations during the past seventy years and beyond. The volumes should attract the attention of the reading public as well as practitioners of Indian diplomacy. They are the product of a collaborative research project of Netaji Institute For Asian Studies, Kolkata, and West Bengal Federation of United Nations Association, which has been funded by the Government of West Bengal.
