The correct option is D.

The President’s Bodyguard (PBG) is an elite cavalry unit of the Indian Army. It is the senior-most regiment of the Indian Army, established in 1773. It is not a police force, a paramilitary force (which typically fall under the Ministry of Home Affairs), or a unit of the Delhi Police. It is part of the regular Indian Army structure, primarily tasked with ceremonial duties and escorting the President.

Members of the PBG are selected from the three services (Army, Navy, Air Force). While its primary role today is ceremonial and providing security cover for the President, it is a trained military unit capable of combat roles. It is based at the Rashtrapati Bhavan.
