Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (a) 1 only
The Third India–Africa Forum Summit (IAFS-III) was held in New Delhi on 26-30 October 2015, making 2015 the third summit; thus Statement 1 is correct. The IAFS process began only in 2008, not in 1951; Nehru’s Afro-Asian outreach was informal and not this summit series, so Statement 2 is incorrect. Hence option (a) 1 only.
