How many commemorative postage stamps were released to mark two decades of BRICS cooperation?
- A.One
- B.Two
- C.Four
- D.Five
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is two. A pair of commemorative postage stamps was released in New Delhi on the sidelines of the 18th BRICS Summit to mark the completion of two decades of the grouping. The two stamps do not carry the same design. The first depicts the rise of BRICS as a platform for dialogue and cooperation, resting on the spirit of mutual respect, understanding and solidarity. The second carries the logo of India's Chairship along with the vision of 'humanity first' and a 'people-centric' approach that guided the Chairship year. Option A is wrong because a single stamp could not have carried both designs described in the release. Options C and D name larger numbers that are not supported by the announcement. A useful way to fix the answer is to link the number two with the phrase 'two decades' that the stamps themselves carry in their inscription.
