Options
- A. 1 only
- B. 2 only
- C. Both 1 and 2
- D. Neither 1 nor 2
Answer
D. Neither 1 nor 2
Step-by-step solution
The first BRIC Summit was held in Yekaterinburg, Russia, in 2009. Hence, statement 1 is incorrect. India has hosted the BRICS Summit three times: in 2012 (New Delhi), 2016 (Goa), and 2021 (New Delhi/Virtual). Thus, the summit was held in New Delhi on two occasions, not three. Hence, statement 2 is incorrect. Therefore, neither statement 1 nor 2 is correct. Answer: Neither 1 nor 2
