Classification (texts & doctrines): Three are canonical religious scriptures; one is a political doctrine/principle. Identify the odd one out.

Introduction / Context:
This item tests recognition of category membership. Among the options, three are foundational religious scriptures, while one refers to a set of political principles (“Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence”). The task is to select the one that is not a scripture.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Quran: the holy scripture of Islam.
• Bible: the central scripture of Christianity.
• Gita (Bhagavad Gita): a revered Hindu scripture.
• Panchsheel (Panchsila): widely known as principles/doctrine for interstate conduct, not a revealed scripture.

Concept / Approach:
Compare by genre: sacred scripture vs political/ethical doctrine. Only one option falls outside the “religious scripture” class.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:
Ask whether the text is used as a primary religious canon. Panchsheel is associated with foreign policy/ethical principles, not liturgy or revelation.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:

Common Pitfalls:
Assuming “Panchsheel” is a sacred text because of its Sanskrit-derived name. It denotes principles, not a holy book.

Final Answer:
Panchsheel
