Describe the role played by india in keeping the Non-aligned movt. alive and relevant?

• India during the Cold War, stayed away from the politics of Alliances. She took steps to resolve differences between alliances and thus at times prevented countries from being involved in full-scale war.
• Indian diplomats mediated between the Cold War rivals during the Korean War.
• India tried to actively involve those countries and organisations in regional and world politics which were not the part of the Cold War alliances.
• India continues to practice a policy of non-alignment in an attempt to maintain sovereignty and oppose imperialism. 

As NAM is also based on the value of democratising the international system by thinking about an alternative world order to address issues such as poverty and inequalities, the organization is still relevant today after more than two and a half decades of the ending of the Cold War.
