UNHCR

Good morning respected chair and my fellows delegates. Namaste. Were gathered here today in this August house to discuss and deliberate over the Refugee crisis in the world today. We currently have over 10.4 million refugees in the world today, most of them living in inhumane conditions varying,
from refugee camps and collective centres to makeshift shelters to living in the open, without any access to basic health facilities, toilets, clean water or food.

India hosts 174,388 refugees from Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Afghanistan and other neighboring countries. Due to the high influx of refugees, we face an economic crisis however, inspite of this. we are committed to improving the quality of the life of refugees in India and across the world. We have granted asylum to the Tibetan government in exile since China invaded Tibet in 1959, and we continue to do so till today. I would now quickly like to move on to a few comprehensive yet practical suggestions that India believes will help solve the problem in the world today. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ 1) We encourage countries to make refugee friendly laws like the ones in Lebanon, Sweden and Ecuador that grant refugees special refugee status in their country, that allows refugees access to health checks, financial assistance, education facilities, accommodation assistance etc. 2) 80% refugees take refuge in developing nations. As we have seen with the example of India, this takes a toll on the economic condition of the developing country. I request developed countries to help the UN High Commission for Refugees provide refugee aid in developing countries. 3) The UN in 1951 had come up with the convention relating to the status of refugees that laid down basic laws that would help us take better care of the refugees. Many countries in this council have not signed the convention, I request all countries present here to sign the same, so we can move forward together from here. 4) The last solution we propose is a unique one. Many school students are not aware of the refugee problem in this world. To make them sensitive to this issue, we propose that all countries come up and fund a Refugee Internship program where students of developing and developed countries after their 10th. 11th or 12th standard board exams can volunteer with a NGO working in refugee camps around the world. Providing his platform will ensure that students like us, will instead of only talking in councils will actually get to experience the problems in the real world, and it will make our generation more sensitive to this issue.

Dear delegates and respected chair, India believes that everyone deserves a place to call home. Let us do out best today to come up with a strong resolution paper that allows refugees to do the same. Thank you.

Point of parliamentary inquiry Respected chair the study guide had 2 issues the South China border dispute and the India China border relations. Will we focus on both issues or just on one? If we are to focus on both issues, will 1 resolution paper have both, or will we split into 2 blocks, one which will write solutions for India China and 1 which will write solutions for South China border issue? Good morning respected chair and my fellow delegates. Namaste. We are gathered here today in this August house to discuss the territorial issues surrounding the South China sea as well as the India- China border issue. As a country that faces direct implications from both these problems, let me start by giving you a short background history of the issue that will also make Indias country stance clear. Our border issue with China revolves around 2 areas, Arunachal Pradesh and Aksai Chin. Aksai chin issue India china issue Another issue we are focusing on is the south China border issue. Our proposed solutions for the issue are as follows India china issue soln South china border soln

Aksai Chin is claimed by India as a part of Jammu and Kashmir, as a part of Ladakh but it is administered as a part of Chinas province Xinjiang. It is an inhabitable wasteland.

The other one is Arunachal Pradesh, lying south of the Mcmohan line. This Mcmohan line was a part of the 1914 British India and Tibet pact which the China refuses to recognize.
1962 war was fought on both these areas. 1996 they established a LO Actually C. Weve had the Johnson line, Mcartney Mcdonald line. During 1950s China built a road south of Johnson border connecting Xinjiang and Tibet. Aksai Chin was easy for Chinese to reach, but difficult for India to cross Karakoram and reach.
In April 2013 India claimed, referencing their own perception of the Line of Actual Control (LAC) location, that Chinese troops had established a camp in the Daulat Beg Oldi sector, 10 km on their side of the Line of Actual Control. This figure was later revised to a 19 km claim. According to Indian media, the incursion included Chinese military helicopters entering Indian airspace to drop supplies to the troops. However, Chinese officials denied any trespassing having taken [20][21] place. Soldiers from both countries briefly set up camps on the ill-defined frontier facing each other, but the tension was defused when both sides pulled back soldiers in early May

India wants Johnson line, China wants the Mcartney Mcdonald line. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ McMohan line, agreed upon by 2 out of 3 representatives. This is in 1914. Naturally Arunachal Pradesh belong to India as it is south of the Himalayas.
India believes that the boundaries China proposed inLadakh and Arunachal Pradesh have no written basis and no documentation of acceptance by anyone apart from China 90% of the McMahon Line does in fact follow the main watershed ridge divide of the Himalayas

2 armies should be separated by the highest mountains in the world.

n October 2009, Asian Development Bank formally acknowledging Arunachal Pradesh as part of India, approved a loan to India for a development project there. Earlier China had exercised [49] pressure on the bank to cease the loan, however India succeeded in securing the loan with the help of the United States and Japan In the 2012 BRICS summit in New Delhi, India, Chinese President Hu Jintao told Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh that "it is China's unswerving policy to develop Sino-Indian friendship, deepen strategic cooperation and seek common development" and "China hopes to see a peaceful, prosperous and continually developing India and is committed to building more dynamic [61] China-India relationship". Other topics were discussed, including border dispute problems and a unified BRICS central ban

China is ready to work with the Indian government to advance the process of negotiation so as to achieve a fair, reasonable framework acceptable to both sides so as to make the border areas into a bridge and bond between the two peoples to facilitate their exchanges and communication," Both countries have "reiterated that the boundary question should not overshadow" overall ties, he said.

Special representatives team to discuss the same. Border defence cooperation agreement (BDCA).
"India is used to incursions by Chinese troops across the 4,057-km LAC in all the three sectorswestern (Ladakh), middle (Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh) and eastern (Sikkim, Arunachal Pradesh) in a bid to strengthen China's claim over disputed areas and ensure New Delhi does not change its Tibet policy
