Which of the following operation-country pairs are correctly matched?
- 1. Operation Raahat – Yemen
- 2. Vande Bharat Mission – Sri Lanka
- 3. Operation Maitri – Nepal
- 4. Operation Sukoon – Iraq
A1 and 3 ✓ Correct
B2 and 3
C2 and 4
D1 and 2
Correct answer: (A) 1 and 3 — Pairs 1 and 3 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1 and 3.
Explanation
★Pairs 1 and 3 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1 and 3.
★Operation Raahat evacuated Indians and others from Yemen during the 2015 conflict, validating pair 1.
★Operation Maitri was India's relief mission in Nepal after the April 2015 earthquake, validating pair 3.
★Pair 2 is wrong because the Vande Bharat Mission was a global COVID-era repatriation, not specific to Sri Lanka.
★Pair 4 is wrong because Operation Sukoon evacuated nationals from Lebanon during the 2006 war, not Iraq.
★These missions show India's growing capacity for overseas evacuation and disaster relief.
★Such operations are a visible part of India's diaspora and humanitarian diplomacy.
