UNGA President Dennis Francis has expressed confidence in India's ability to become a permanent member of the UNSC, ANI reported on Tuesday. He reportedly termed having a permanent UNSC seat a "weighty responsibility" but acknowledged that India could handle the role. However, Francis emphasized that the decision and timeline for India's permanent membership would depend on the ongoing reform agenda within the UNSC and the consensus of UN members.
