In which city is the 31st CII Partnership Summit 2026 being held?
- A.Amaravati
- B.Visakhapatnam
- C.Hyderabad
- D.Chennai
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Visakhapatnam. The thirty-first edition of the Summit is a two-day event held in this port city of Andhra Pradesh, with the State government as host and the Confederation of Indian Industry as organiser along with the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade. Option A, Amaravati, is the capital of Andhra Pradesh but is not the venue of this Summit. Option C, Hyderabad, lies in Telangana and has no role in this edition, and option D, Chennai, belongs to Tamil Nadu; the only Chennai link in the proceedings is the Japan External Trade Organisation office whose head spoke about Japanese companies expanding in India. Aspirants should tie the edition number, the city and the host State together, because questions on summits are usually framed around the venue and the edition rather than the sessions.
