Answer: Option B ā To prosecute individuals for genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes
Detailed Solution
The ICC at The Hague, set up under the Rome Statute (in force 2002), tries individuals for genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes and aggression.
Trade is the WTO's field, border disputes between states go to the International Court of Justice, and monetary cooperation is the IMF's role. India is not a party to the Rome Statute.
Quick tip
Remember: ICC tries individuals; ICJ settles disputes between states.

Organisations & Headquarters ā Preparation
This question tests your understanding of Organisations & Headquarters, a key topic in the General Knowledge section. The detailed solution above uses a step-by-step approach to show the reasoning, and where available, a shortcut that helps you solve similar questions in under 90 seconds during the actual exam.
This topic covers national and international organisations: the United Nations and its agencies, regional groups such as SAARC, ASEAN and BRICS, global bodies such as the WHO, ILO and UNESCO, and Indian institutions, with their headquarters, founding years, members and heads. Questions typically ask where an organisation is headquartered, when it was founded, or what its full form is. For example, UNESCO is headquartered in Paris and the WHO in Geneva. Membership and leadership change over time, so pair the static facts here with current affairs for recent changes such as new members or new heads. Practise the organisations and headquarters questions below, written in the style of the general awareness sections of exams such as SSC, banking, railways, CUET GAT, MAH CET and CLAT. Each question comes with a detailed explanation that adds related facts, so every question helps you revise more than one point.
