India has officially submitted the following stand on ITRs at WCIT-2012:
“India supports the proposed ITRs and the Resolutions 1,2,4 and 5. We support the broad thrust of Resolution Plen/3 regarding an enabling environment for the greater growth of the Internet, particularly its recognition of the multi-stakeholder nature of the Internet and its wider social and economic impact within and across countries around the world.
India considers that this resolution should reflect the current and emerging global realities and the dynamics of the Internet. We need to consider the wider ramifications of this Resolution before taking a decision on signing of the ITRs. We would therefore like to undertake necessary consultations at home before announcing our final decision.”
