National Investigation Officers are military officers serving in the UN peacekeeping missions that are assigned to deploying units to investigate and document incidents of potential misconduct and gather evidence so that troop-contributing countries can take effective disciplinary and legal action when it is required.
CUNPK is a joint venture of the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), the Ministry of Defence (MoD) and the Service Headquarters and serves as a Centre of Excellence in collaboration with the Centre for Land Warfare Studies (CLAWS) and various other Governmental and Non-Governmental agencies. It was raised in the year 2000.
