India, though a working democracy, has adopted an ambivalent stance toward the genesis and evolution of the doctrine of the Responsibility to Protect. This article traces India's views toward the earlier principle of humanitarian intervention, outlines its reactions toward the advent of the norm, and discusses India's positions on the attempts to apply it to recent international crises. It then argues that India's cautious support for the principle stems in part from concerns about its potential abuse in the hands of the great powers, post-colonial concerns about the diminution of the norm of state sovereignty, and finally, its own domestic vulnerabilities in the protection of human rights
