The correct answer is Option C: 2028–29. India launched its official campaign on 13 July 2026 for a non-permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) for the 2028–29 term. External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar unveiled India's SHANTI vision at the United Nations Headquarters, New York. The United Nations Security Council consists of 15 members, including 5 permanent and 10 non-permanent members elected by the United Nations General Assembly for two-year terms.
