In the intro, mention the Abraham Accords between UAE, Bahrain, Sudan and Morocco with Israel.
In the body, mention the factors such as Turkey’s hostility toward India on Kashmir issue and blocking of NSG membership at the behest of Pakistan, growing inclination of Pakistan towards Turkey, the transformation of India’s relations with UAE and Israel and convergence of interest between the three countries, the scope for cooperation in aerospace, defence and digital innovation etc.
Conclude by mentioning that the idea of a Greater Middle East can provide a huge fillip to India’s engagement with the extended neighbourhood to the west.

  Nice answer. Introduction is good.
  
  Body of the answer is also fine, you have covered most of the points, in Turkey’s assertion part, you can mention that it wants to be the leader of the Islamic world which doesn’t go well with moderate Arabs rather than just mentioning Muslim brotherhood. Also you can write a separate sub-heading for India- UAE- Israel relations as the question is focusing on that. Mention some more points such as defence co-operation with Israel, energy needs etc
  
  Conclusion is fine.
  
  Keep practicing. 🙂
