India has called for overhauling the electoral processes in the UN General Assembly as an initial step towards reforming and revitalising the working methods of the 193-member UN organ.<br/><br/>Counsellor in India's Permanent Mission to the UN, Anjani Kumar said, the quality of working methods of the General Assembly is integral to the efficiency and effectiveness of the organisation and these need to evolve with time and reflect the necessities of changing circumstances and realities. <br/><br/>During a debate on Working Methods in New York yesterday, Mr Kumar said, as the most representative global body, the General Assembly must lead the way by following the best electoral practices and setting up highest standards befitting its stature. He said, India and several other delegations have pointed out how the General Assembly has steadily lost touch with its core responsibilities and is increasingly involved only with processes.
