Which country is the partner country at the 14th India Chem 2026?
- A.Germany
- B.Japan
- C.South Korea
- D.United States
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Japan, which joins the fourteenth edition as the partner country, a step seen as strengthening economic cooperation between India and Japan. Option A is wrong because Germany, though part of the European Union participation expected at the event, was not named the partner country. Option C is wrong because Korea is listed only among the many countries whose industry is expected to take part, along with Vietnam, Canada, the United Kingdom and the ASEAN nations. Option D is wrong for the same reason: the United States appears in the list of participating countries and in the buyers' delegations expected at Mumbai, but the partner country status belongs to Japan alone at this edition, which is being held on the theme Advantage Bharat: An Emerging Global Chemicals Hub.
