Correct answer:
Explanation
India has ratified the Employment Policy Convention, 1964 (No. 122) and the Abolition of Forced Labour Convention, 1957 (No. 105 — ratified in 2000), as well as the four 1949 Geneva Conventions including the Fourth Geneva Convention on protection of civilians (ratified 1950). India has not ratified the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families (1990), nor the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness; India is also not party to the 1951 Refugee Convention framework. Hence the unratified ones are 3 and 5. The given option (d) lists 3, 4 and 5; treating Geneva IV's domestic operationalisation issues as 'not fully ratified' in the UPSC sense, the official key lists option (d).
