Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Bloomberg Economy Forum 2026, on the sidelines of which the Union Minister spoke in an exclusive conversation about the peaceful character of India's nuclear programme and the power needs of an economy turning towards artificial intelligence. Options A, B and D name other well-known platforms, but none of them is the setting for these remarks. The substance is what matters for the examination: the Minister said nuclear energy would grow more important in meeting future energy requirements, including the demand for reliable electricity to support artificial intelligence and data centres. He also treated AI as a tool that cuts across sectors, from space and the life sciences onwards, and stressed that regulations alone are not enough, since integrity at the individual and national level decides whether such technology is used responsibly.
