HCCRI XII
As one of the six primary organs of the United Nations, the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) is widely known as the primary organisation responsible for maintaining international peace and security. In this iteration of HCCRI, delegates will be embarking on a dynamic agenda of discussion, with an unparalleled Rules of Procedure that offers a more immersive simulation and rigorous academic experience for advanced delegates.
The Rajya Sabha is the upper house within the bicameral Parliament of India, which proposes,
debates, and passes laws. This conference, delegates of the Rajya Sabha will be engaged in fierce
discussion about the state of Internal Security in India.
This somewhat dry summary belies just how exciting debate will actually be. Communists, Hindu
Nationalists and loyalists to the unbroken family line of Mahatma Gandhi will battle it out in a
fight to legislative victory. The touchy subjects of religious violence, as well as protests and
riots in India will all be brought up, discussed and dissected. With no single party holding
anywhere close to a majority, even seemingly minor players can control the whole direction of
council.
Will India act and further entrench government power? Will it reaffirm religious discrimination or
oppose it? Will anything change in the slightest?
