Question:

The Monarch made efforts to weed out the Guerrilas and Militants from the North Eastern India that operated in his country. Identify the country which this Monarch belongs to?

Options:

Nepal

Bhutan

Thailand

Maldives

Correct Answer:

Bhutan

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 2 - Bhutan

India enjoys a very special relationship with Bhutan too and does not have any major conflict with the Bhutanese government. The efforts made by the Bhutanese monarch to weed out the guerrillas and militants from northeastern India that operate in his country have been helpful to India. India is involved in big hydroelectric projects in Bhutan and remains the Himalayan kingdom’s biggest source of development aid. India’s ties with the Maldives remain warm and cordial. In November 1988, when some Tamil mercenaries from Sri Lanka attacked the Maldives, the Indian air force and navy reacted quickly to the Maldives’ request to help stop the invasion. India has also contributed towards the island’s economic development, tourism and fisheries.
