Some excerpts:
The Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organisation (CTBTO) held a ministerial meeting in Vienna on Monday, marking 20 years since the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT) was opened for signature in 1996. The countries that have still to ratify the treaty were invited to join member states and the CTBTO to discuss the future of CTBT.
At the conference, participants pledged to take further steps towards making test ban a binding reality but India and North Korea opted to stay out.
Pakistani Ambassador as usual targeted India and repeated what we hear daily, read more at : http://www.dawn.com/news/1264952/pakistan-reaffirms-commitment-to-n-test-moratorium
Only North Korea, India, and Pakistan have not signed the treaty among the Annex 2 states.
Now my question is:
Is Pakistan planning to sign CTBT or its just posturing to look better for NSG membership? Also if its just NSG posturing what will it achieve? (beside using one more portal against India).
For Indian CTBT future a good article is

I also tried to find previous meetings and participants but there is no such record of India or Pakistan participating if anyone can find it please mention.
