Question

Identify the correct pair:

• A. Afro-Asian Conference: Bandung (1945)
• B. NAM: Non-Aligned Movement
• C. Dalai Lama: Sought asylum in India (1989)
• D. All of the above are correct

Hint:

In history-based multiple-choice questions, pay close attention to dates. Even if the event and location match (like Bandung and the Afro-Asian Conference), a single incorrect digit in the year makes the entire option wrong.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept: Understanding historical events and their terminology is essential for accurate political analysis. This requires verifying the names of organizations and the specific years in which major diplomatic events occurred.

Step 1: Evaluating each pair for historical and terminological accuracy.
• Afro-Asian Conference (A): While this conference was held in Bandung, it took place in 1955, not 1945.
• NAM (B): The acronym NAM correctly stands for the Non-Aligned Movement, an organization of states that did not formally align with or against any major power bloc during the Cold War.
• Dalai Lama (C): The Dalai Lama sought and was granted asylum in India in 1959, following the Tibetan uprising, not in 1989. Since pairs A and C contain incorrect dates, only pair B is accurate.
