Zulfikar Ali Bhutto ruled first in the 1970s, Zia-ul-Haq followed after his overthrow, Benazir Bhutto came later as elected Prime Minister, and Musharraf ruled after her. Hence, option A is correct.
- A. Bangladesh
- B. China
- C. Bhutan
- D. Maldives
The country that is not a neighbour of India in this context is Bhutan? Actually, in NCERT, India’s immediate neighbours include Bangladesh, China, Bhutan and Maldives is not an immediate land neighbour.

In the NCERT context, if the full question were about India’s policy or approach in international relations, the expected completion is often 'The policy of India was more of a cooperative one' or similar. However, because the stem is missing, a definite answer cannot be determined from the given text alone.

Log in to view solution →Globalisation is a multi-dimensional concept. It has various manifestations, and these must be adequately distinguished. It is wrong to assume that globalisation has only one dimension, just as it would also be mistaken to assume that it is a purely cultural phenomenon. The impact of globalisation is multi-dimensional; it affects some societies more than others and it is important to avoid drawing general conclusions about the impact of globalisation without paying sufficient attention to specific contexts.

- C. (i) Cultural (ii) It affects all over the world equally. (iii) Flow of rivers (iv) discriminatory
- D. (i) Economic (ii) When major economic events take place, their impact is felt at the global level. (iii) Flow of people (iv) regional
