Abstract :The sense of euphoria towards UN peacekeeping operations PKOs suffered a grave setback in the wake of Somalia, former Yugoslavia, Rwanda and to some extent Angola in the 1990s. The recommendations of the Brahimi Panel1 , to a great extent, have provided an able way to tide over structural and conceptual deficiencies noticed during the conduct of complex PKOs in this period. The world body recognized the requirement for change through restructuring and strengthening the UN capabilities to conduct PKOs in the 21st century.
