Which of the following connectivity projects is/are a part of cooperation between India and the ASEAN member countries ?
1. Kaladan Multi-Modal Transit Transport Project
2. IMT Trilateral Highway
3. Agartala-Akhaura Rail Line

Select the answer using the code given below :

Correct Option: (a) 1 and 2

The correct option is (a). Statements 1 and 2 are correct. The Kaladan Multi-Modal Transit Transport Project connects India with Myanmar (an ASEAN member nation), and the India-Myanmar-Thailand (IMT) Trilateral Highway connects India with Myanmar and Thailand, both forming core connectivity cooperation initiatives with ASEAN. Statement 3 is incorrect because the Agartala-Akhaura Rail Line connects India with Bangladesh, which is a bilateral project with Bangladesh, not an ASEAN connectivity project.
