New Delhi: India will soon become the foremost contributor to the United Nations peacekeeping force when it despatches next month a brigade-level group to Sudan.
The Indian Army brigade group bound for Sudan would include two infantry battalions and some mechanised columns, officials said.

#1  The first deployment of a huge UN peacekeeping mission in Sudan began yesterday with 12 Nepalese soldiers and equipment arriving in clouds of dust on a cool morning in the west of the country.
