New Delhi might find that frankness is a lot more useful with Beijing than nursing grievances in private and feigning convergence in public.

New Delhi’s renewed efforts to persuade Beijing to change its mind on India’s Nuclear Suppliers Group membership should be an extraordinary exercise in realpolitik that is well worth watching.
