Who led the Indian Coast Guard delegation at the 14th High Level Meeting with the Korea Coast Guard?
- A.Senior Superintendent General Im Myeong Gil
- B.Inspector General T. Sashi Kumar
- C.The Director General of the Indian Coast Guard
- D.The Chief of the Naval Staff
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Inspector General T. Sashi Kumar, who led the Indian Coast Guard delegation on its official visit to the Republic of Korea. Option A is wrong because Senior Superintendent General Im Myeong Gil led the other side, the Korea Coast Guard delegation, and a question of this kind is often set to see whether a candidate has swapped the two names. Option C is wrong because the Director General heads the Indian Coast Guard as a service but did not lead this delegation; the meeting was led at the rank of Inspector General. Option D is wrong because the Chief of the Naval Staff heads the Indian Navy, a separate service, and had no part in this coast guard engagement. Remember that the Indian Coast Guard functions under the Ministry of Defence, which announced the outcome of the meeting.
