Question 2 of 5
2. Question
1 pointsBanjul formula is related to
Correct
a) African Union (AU)
India-Africa summits started from 2008 with New Delhi as its first venue. Since then it, was decided to hold these summits every three years, alternately in India and Africa. Second summit was held in Addis Ababa in 2011. The third summit, scheduled to be held in 2014, was postponed because of the Ebola outbreak, and took place in October 2015.
For the first time, the India-Africa summit has done away with the so called Banjul Formula.
This summit was important because it dispensed with the practice of following the Banjul formula. This Banjul Formula was adopted by the African Union (AU) in 2006 and it meant that India would invite only 15 heads of state or government through the African Union. But this time, all the 54 heads of state and government were invited and of all who came, 40 were heads of state.
