The Indian peacekeepers, the UNMISS said in a statement, have been recognized for their strong contribution to building peace in conflict-affected East African country as well as for going above and beyond their duties to support local communities.

India is among the largest troop contributing countries to UN peacekeeping missions in the world.

As of March, India was second highest troop contributor to UN missions, with 2,337 troops deployed in the various countries.

In addition, India reportedly contributes 22 police personnel to UN missions.
