The UN Security Council<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>India was re-elected for three years as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council in October 2014. India was elected by acclamation, receiving 187 votes in the 193-member General Assembly. India&#8217;s election was a significant victory, as it was the first time that the country had been elected to the Security Council in 10 years.<\/p>\n<p>The UN Security Council is one of the six principal organs of the United Nations. It is responsible for maintaining international peace and security. The Council has 15 members, five of which are permanent members (China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States) and 10 of which are elected by the General Assembly for two-year terms.<\/p>\n<p>India&#8217;s election to the Security Council was a recognition of its growing role in international affairs. India is a major player in the global economy and a nuclear power. It is also a member of the G20 and the BRICS group of emerging economies. India&#8217;s election to the Security Council will give it a greater voice in international affairs and will allow it to play a more active role in promoting peace and security around the world.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>B. The UN General Assembly<\/strong> is the main deliberative organ of the United Nations. It is composed of all 193 member states of the United Nations. The General Assembly meets in regular sessions every year from September to December.<\/li>\n<li><strong>C. The UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC)<\/strong> is one of the six principal organs of the United Nations. It is responsible for promoting international economic and social cooperation and development. ECOSOC has 54 members, elected by the General Assembly for three-year terms.<\/li>\n<li><strong>D. The World Bank<\/strong> is an international financial institution that provides loans to developing countries for capital programs. It was founded in 1944 at the Bretton Woods Conference. The World Bank Group comprises two development institutions: the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the International Development Association (IDA).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;The UN Security Council&#8221;
