Correct Answer:
C. 1985 (Dhaka)
The South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) was founded on December 8, 1985, in Dhaka, Bangladesh. SAARC is an intergovernmental organization and geopolitical union of states in South Asia. Its aim is to promote economic development and regional integration. The founding charter was signed by the leaders of Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka.
- 1985: This is the correct year, but the option 1985 (Dhaka) provides the complete and most accurate information, including the founding city.
- Delhi: While India is a founding member, Delhi was not the founding location.
- Rangoon: Rangoon (now Yangon) is in Myanmar, which is not a SAARC member country.
