Which of the following connectivity projects is/are a part of cooperation between India and the ASEAN member countries?
Select the answer using the code given below:
Options
1 and 2
2 and 3
1 and 3
2 only
Explanation
Statements 1 and 2 are correct[cite: 3142, 3143]. The Kaladan Multi-Modal project (1) connects Kolkata with Sittwe port in Myanmar, an ASEAN member. The India-Myanmar-Thailand (IMT) Trilateral Highway (2) directly links India with ASEAN mainland networks. Statement 3 is incorrect because the Agartala-Akhaura Rail Line is a bilateral cross-border project specifically between India and Bangladesh, and Bangladesh is not a member country of ASEAN.
