The Trishakti Corps, which the Raksha Mantri visited in Sikkim on Deepawali, is which Corps of the Indian Army?
- A.11 Corps
- B.22 Corps
- C.33 Corps
- D.44 Corps
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 33 Corps. The Trishakti Corps is the designation of the Army's thirty-third Corps, and its soldiers are deployed in the forward areas of Sikkim, where the Raksha Mantri celebrated Deepawali with them. The release names the formation explicitly as the Trishakti Corps, or 33 Corps, and names its General Officer Commanding as Lieutenant General Man Raj Singh Mann, who was among the officers accompanying the Raksha Mantri along with the Chief of the Army Staff, General Dhiraj Seth, and the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief of Eastern Command, Lieutenant General V M B Krishnan. The other three numbers given in the options are not the designation attached to the Trishakti Corps anywhere in the account of the visit, so options A, B and D are wrong.
