India has voiced its apprehension over the United Nations' perceived inefficacy in dealing with global conflicts, suggesting a move towards alternative plurilateral frameworks. The statement arrives amidst growing geopolitical tensions and highlights the UN's failure, particularly within the Security Council, to effectively resolve international issues.

The Indian government's stance is anchored in a broader dialogue about the necessity of comprehensive reforms within the UN, especially concerning the Security Council's outdated structure. This reform is deemed critical for the body to maintain legitimacy and address contemporary global challenges effectively.

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump has introduced the 'Board of Peace', a rival initiative aiming to address global conflicts outside the UN framework. This board, endorsed by several nations, seeks innovative approaches to attaining peace, marking a significant shift from traditional multilateral strategies.
