Solution

The correct option is C Border Road
The DBO is a border road. This road connects Leh to the DBO post of the Indian army. It runs via the villages of Darbuk and Shyok and thus is also called the Darbuk-Shyok-Daulat Beg Oldi (DSDBO) road. The completion of construction of this strategic road led to increased tensions between the armed forces of India and China. This road was constructed by the Border Roads Organisation (BRO). Since this road is located near the LAC that runs parallel to the boundary between India and China, the DBO road is a border road.
