China wants NSG membership for Pakistan if NSG extends exemption for India. Pic/PTIThe NSG began a two-day meeting yesterday in the Austrian capital to consider India’s application and diplomatic sources said most countries appeared positive towards India’s membership bid. India's membership is being strongly supported by the US. However, reports from Vienna said that China was leading the opposition to India’s membership. China has been opposing India’s entry into the elite group, consistently maintaining that only signatories of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty should be admitted to NSG.
