Ambassador Shiv Shankar Mukherjee was the Chief Guest at the 11th Aravali Model United Nations 2019. His address at the inauguration ceremony stressed on the need for reform in the United Nations Security Council contextualised against the need for every individual to be a rational, thinking being rather than merely a sentient one. The theme of AMUN this year was ‘Negotiating Bipolarity’ with committees exploring the extremities of relations in the international arena and the words of Ambassador Mukherjee set the groundwork of an exhilarating conference.
