How many Indian companies formed the business delegation that accompanied the Minister of State to Poland?

  1. A.8
  2. B.12
  3. C.20
  4. D.35

Correct answer

B. 12

Explanation

The correct answer is 12. A business delegation of that many Indian companies travelled with Jitin Prasada, Minister of State for Commerce and Industry and for Electronics and Information Technology, on his two-day programme in Poland. The size of the delegation matters because the visit was built around commercial outcomes: a business forum in the Polish capital, meetings with prospective Polish investors, interaction with Indian businesspersons settled in Poland, and visits to two Polish firms that already work with India, namely Transition Technologies in software engineering and WB Electronics in defence. The other options are plausible-looking delegation sizes but none of them matches the figure given for this visit. Candidates should pair the figure with the two sectors singled out for future work, critical minerals and semiconductors, and with the push for small and medium enterprises.
