The correct answer is C, as India contributes personnel from all three categories to UN Peacekeeping Missions.
India is one of the largest contributors of troops and police personnel to United Nations Peacekeeping operations. UN Peacekeeping missions are composed of military personnel (troops and staff officers), police personnel (formed police units and individual police officers), and civilian staff (experts, administrators, support staff, etc.). India has historically provided and continues to provide personnel across all these components.
India’s participation in UN Peacekeeping dates back to the Korean War (1950-53) and continues to the present day. Indian peacekeepers are known for their professionalism, discipline, and dedication. India’s contribution includes significant numbers of troops and police officers deployed in various missions around the world, as well as civilian experts and advisors.
