What is the theme of the 13th ADMM-Plus addressed by the Raksha Mantri?
- A.Shared Seas, Shared Future
- B.Youth, Peace and Security
- C.Navigating Our Future, Together
- D.Peace Through Partnership
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Navigating Our Future, Together. This was the theme of the thirteenth ADMM-Plus, and the Defence Minister said it sits well with India’s foreign and defence policy thinking as well as the civilisational sentiment ‘Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah’, the wish that all beings be happy. He added that the theme is a reminder that solidarity and the shared ability to draw on the region’s geographic, economic and strategic diversity are its greatest strength. Option B, ‘Youth, Peace and Security’, is a distractor drawn from the same speech but it is a separate theme, the one the Minister cited while proposing a dedicated defence ‘Youth Bridge’ for institutional people-to-people connectivity, digital innovation and capacity building; it was not the theme of the meeting itself. Options A and D are invented phrases of the kind that often appear as plausible summit slogans and were not used for this edition.
