Correct Answer:
C. 8
Correct answer: 8. SAARC has eight members: Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka.
Background: SAARC was founded in Dhaka in 1985 by seven countries, and Afghanistan joined in 2007.
- 6: Six is fewer than the actual number.
- 7: Seven was the number of founding members before Afghanistan joined.
- 10: Ten is more than the actual number.
Did you know? The SAARC Secretariat is in Kathmandu, Nepal.
Memory trick: 7 founders + Afghanistan = 8.
