What is the importance of developing Chabahar Port by India?

  • A.India's trade with African countries will enormously increase.
  • B.India's relations with oil-producing Arab countries will be strengthened.
  • C.India will not depend on Pakistan for access to Afghanistan and Central Asia.
  • D.Pakistan will facilitate and protect the installation of a gas pipeline between Iraq and India.

Answer: C

The importance is that India will not depend on Pakistan for access to Afghanistan and Central Asia.

Chabahar, on Iran's south-eastern coast, gives India a sea-land route to Afghanistan and onward to Central Asia (linked to the International North-South Transport Corridor) that bypasses Pakistan, which denies India overland transit.

The port is not mainly about trade with Africa or ties with the Arab oil producers, and Pakistan has no role in protecting any Iraq-India gas pipeline through it.
