  • Question

  • Options
  • A. China-Myanmar Economic Corridor (CMEC)
  • B. Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar (BCIM) Economic Corridor
  • C. Nepal-China-India Economic Corridor(NCIEC)
  • D. China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC)

  • Correct Answer
  • Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar (BCIM) Economic Corridor 

    Explanation
    The report titled, 'The Belt and Road Initiative Progress, Contributions and Prospects' released by the Leading Group for Promoting the Belt and Road Initiative had previously listed the BCIM as a BRI project. But, owing to the fact that India had skipped the Belt and Road Forum (BRF), the Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar (BCIM) economic corridor ran the possibility to be excluded from the list of projects under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) umbrella. The BRI is a major initiative speared by China to reconstruct the ancient Silk Road connectivity across Eurasia and Africa.This has come to limelight after a document attached with the Joint Communique of the Leaders' Roundtable of the BRF that concluded in Beijing, the website did not list the BCIM as a project under the BRI.
