India, China & Russia's Grand axis: Challenge the Unipolar Supremacy of the US? Elaborate!

America has been the sole military, economically and politically effective super power in the world, changing the international political equations to unipolarism after the end of the cold war. Democratic structure of the world politics was disturbed due to supermacy of the US in UN, WTO and other international institutions and affairs.

If India, Russia and China come together forming an axis with having almost half of the world population as the possibilities are there they can bring majority of countries under their leadership. Apart from great political influence, technological development and other positive factors, can lead them to form a second super-power axis, to really democratize the world again.

But as India is leader in Non-Align Movement, India cannot come into groupism with these communist countries, but only in matters of leadership to give and raise voice of poor, developing and under developed nations, India should co-operate to form this unbounded axis.

But this axis just needs and should be democratic and not anti-US in nature. By lessening US influence, the need of time is to reduce centralisation of international power, and this can be resulted by this grand axis.
