2

The Afro-Asian conference held in the Indonesian city of Bandung in 1955, commonly known as the Bandung Conference, marked the zenith of India’s engagement with the newly independent Asian and African nations. The Bandung Conference later led to the establishment of the NAM. The First Summit of the NAM was held in Belgrade in September 1961. Nehru was a co-founder of the Non Alignment Movement.

In this question both option 1 and 2 are correct. The question asks about the importance of Bandung Conference 1955 in 'world political history'. Option 1 speaks of India's relation with newly independent Afro-Asian nations. This option is relevant for India and not for world political history. Formation of NAM was an important event in World Poliitcal history. So option 2 is more appropriate.
