Question:

Which country is not a part of India's "Look East Policy"?

Options:

Bangladesh

Myanmar

Thailand

Russia

Correct Answer:

Russia

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (4) - Russia

Out of the listed countries, Russia is not a part of India's "Look East Policy".
The Look East Policy focuses on strengthening India's relations with Southeast Asian nations and some East Asian countries. Russia is located in Northern Eurasia and isn't geographically part of Southeast or East Asia, which are the regions the Look East Policy targets. India’s ‘Look East’ Policy since 1991 has led to greater economic interaction with the East Asian nations (ASEAN, China, Japan and South Korea).
