Which of the following connectivity projects is/are a part of cooperation between India and the ASEAN member countries?
- Kaladan Multi-Modal Transit Transport Project
- IMT Trilateral Highway
- Agartala-Akhaura Rail Line
Select the answer using the code given below:
Explanation
The correct option is 1 and 2 because both the Kaladan Multi-Modal Transit Transport Project and the IMT Trilateral Highway are specifically designed to enhance connectivity between India and ASEAN member countries, thereby fostering regional integration and trade. The Kaladan project connects India's northeastern states with Myanmar's port of Sittwe, ultimately facilitating access to Southeast Asia, while the IMT Trilateral Highway aims to link India, Myanmar, and Thailand, strengthening economic ties among these nations. In contrast, the Agartala-Akhaura Rail Line primarily focuses on India and Bangladesh, thereby not being a part of ASEAN cooperation.
