Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Let's evaluate the terms from Column-A and Column-B:
- (a) Balance of Power refers to maintaining security and stability in international relations. It is best matched with (ii) Security.
- (b) Disarmament involves giving up certain types of weapons, so it is matched with (i) Giving up certain types of weapons.
- (c) Migration refers to the movement of people, which generally influences traditional security issues such as border security, hence it is matched with (iii) Traditional security.
- (d) Freedom from threats is a goal that can lead to new sources of threat as countries take measures to secure themselves, making it matched with (iv) New source of threat.
Thus, the correct answer is (A) (a) (ii), (b) (i), (c) (iii), (d) (iv).
