Which pairs of Indian Prime Minister and doctrine are correctly matched?
- 1. Indira Gandhi: Hegemony in South Asia
- 2. I.K. Gujral: Non-reciprocity with neighbours
- 3. Narasimha Rao: Act East Policy
- 4. Narendra Modi: Look East Policy
A1 and 2 ✓ Correct
B2 and 4
C3 and 4
D1 and 4
Correct answer: (A) 1 and 2 — Pairs 1 and 2 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1 and 2.
Explanation
★Pairs 1 and 2 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1 and 2.
★The Indira Doctrine asserted Indian primacy in South Asia.
★The Gujral Doctrine stressed non-reciprocity with smaller neighbours.
★Pair 3 is wrong, because Narasimha Rao began the Look East Policy.
★Pair 4 is wrong, because Narendra Modi launched the Act East Policy.
★So the policies of Rao and Modi have been swapped.
★Hence only the Indira and Gujral pairings are correct.
