Question

The first BRICS film festival has begun in which of the following cities in India?

• A. New Delhi
• B. Bhopal
• C. Jaipur
• D. Goa

Hint:

For BRICS-related cultural or diplomatic firsts in India, New Delhi is usually the venue as it is the capital and hub of international events.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: The BRICS Film Festival was launched as part of cultural exchange among BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa).

Step 2: The first edition of the festival was held in New Delhi in September 2016. 

Step 3: It showcased films from all BRICS countries, strengthening cultural diplomacy. \[ \boxed{\text{New Delhi}} \]

Answer 2

Considering which Indian city typically hosts major inaugural multinational cultural events helps narrow this down.

1. Option 1 (New Delhi): As the national capital and frequent venue for launching international cultural initiatives, New Delhi hosted the inaugural edition of the BRICS Film Festival.
2. Option 2 (Bhopal): Bhopal is known for hosting other cultural events but not the first BRICS Film Festival.
3. Option 3 (Jaipur): Jaipur hosts literary and cultural festivals of its own, but not this particular one.
4. Option 4 (Goa): Goa is associated with the International Film Festival of India, a separate event from the BRICS Film Festival's launch.

The capital city's role in hosting this inaugural international event points to option 1.

Hence, the correct answer is New Delhi.
