Question

Consider the following statements:
The India-Africa Summit
1. held in 2015 was the third such Summit
2. was actually initiated by Jawaharlal Nehru in 1951
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Accepted Answer

Let's evaluate the statements regarding the India-Africa Summit:

1. **held in 2015 was the third such Summit.** This statement is correct. The first India-Africa Forum Summit was held in New Delhi in 2008. The second was held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, in 2011. The third Summit indeed took place in New Delhi in October 2015, making it the third in the series.

2. **was actually initiated by Jawaharlal Nehru in 1951.** This statement is incorrect. While Jawaharlal Nehru was a strong proponent of Afro-Asian solidarity and non-alignment, the formal 'India-Africa Summit' or 'India-Africa Forum Summit' as a structured, recurring event was a more recent initiative, starting in 2008. Earlier engagements were bilateral or part of broader non-aligned movement contexts, but not the specific summit series in question.

Therefore, only statement 1 is correct.
