The case in favour of Disarmament and Arms Control stands supported on the
following grounds:
Disarmament can release huge economic resources which can be used for
securing the developmental needs of all the people of world. “A reduction in
nation’s armaments releases sizable funds, which could be transferred to

Control and save humankind from the present dangerously posed MAD situation
in international relations. All these arguments together build a strong case in
favour of Disarmament and Arms Control. History of Efforts towards
