India of course has not pressed for inclusion of its proposal into the 
UN GA resolution on ICTD of this year, since it is still a proposal up 
for discussion and providing inputs and suggestions.

On the other hand, I understand that there is an effort by G 77 to get 
the enhanced cooperation topic to CSTD (Commission on Science and 
Technology and Development) in a more focused and formal manner then it 
is in any case being handled there at present,  through an open 
consultation/ meeting on it this May at the CSTD annual session. parminder
