Formed one year after the Indian nuclear tests of 1974, the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) is a multinational body which aims to check nuclear proliferation in the world. Its task includes monitoring and controlling the ‘export and re-transfer of materials that may be applicable to nuclear weapon development’.
