I have discussed all the International Organisations and their headquarters which are very important topics to cover if you are preparing for RRB NTPC, RRB Group D or any other SSC exams like SSC CGL and SSC CHSL. According to my research and previous years question papers, there are almost 2 or 3 questions in every exam. Here I have listed all the important international organisations and their headquarters with some more info about the organisation like in which year ith has founded or who is the head of the organisation.
