The questions should be attempted from the following paragraph:

Passage: "The fifth conference of Labour Ministers of Non-Aligned and other developing countries which concluded in New Delhi on January 23, was not just another conference held under the auspices of International Labour Organization to discuss labour welfare. For one it was in the run-up to the world summit on social development that the conference was held, and for another, it was under the shadow of the demand by the industrialised countries to link labour standards to International trade through a social cause. The conference covered a large part of the agenda to be discussed at the summit to be held at Copenhagen in March, i.e., employment creation, poverty reduction and eradication and social integration."

Now answer the following questions:

1. Compulsion by ILO
2. To satisfy the government
3. In the run-up to the world summit
4. Causal meeting of Ministers

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : In the run-up to the world summit

The correct answer is To run-up to the world summit

 

• From the line given in the passage: The fifth conference of Labour Ministers of Non-Aligned and other developing countries which concluded in New Delhi on January 23, was not just another conference held under the auspices of International Labour Organization to discuss labour welfare. For one it was in the run-up to the world summit on social development that the conference was held, and for another, it was under the shadow of the demand by the industrialised countries to link labour standards to International trade through a social cause.
• Thus Option 3 is the most suitable answer.
