How the exam will ask it

প্রিলিমস

  • Naseem Al Bahr is a bilateral naval exercise between India and Oman.
  • IMNEX is a bilateral naval exercise between India and Myanmar.
  • Tiger Triumph is a bilateral India–United States exercise, not one with Japan.
  • Sea Vigil is a pan-India coastal defence exercise in which the Navy is the lead agency.

মেইনস

GS3 Internal security and GS2 IR. Bilateral exercises with Oman, Myanmar and the USA build interoperability and maritime partnerships, while Sea Vigil tests coastal security coordination among agencies. The inclusion of the NDRF in Tiger Triumph shows the growing focus on disaster response; the way forward is deeper inter-agency integration and sustained regional maritime cooperation.

উত্তর দেখুন

উত্তর: B — Correct: Only two — Naseem Al Bahr (Oman) and IMNEX (Myanmar) are correct; Tiger Triumph is an India–USA exercise, so pair 3 is wrong. • Only one — wrong: two pairs are correct, not one — Naseem Al Bahr is with Oman and IMNEX with Myanmar. • All three — wrong: Tiger Triumph is held with the United States, not Japan, so not all three match. • None — wrong: pairs 1 and 2 are correctly matched, so the count is not zero.
