उत्तर और व्याख्या · explanation in English
Answer: (b) 1 और 4
Statements 1 and 4 are the ones that are not correct. The Ministry of External Affairs' list of outcomes of Chancellor Friedrich Merz's visit (12-13 January 2026) records the Ayurveda MoU with a different university, and it has no honorary consul item at all.
- ✗ 1. The All India Institute of Ayurveda signed its MoU with Charité University, Germany (traditional medicines), not with the University of Hamburg.
- ✓ 2. An MoU on Youth Hockey Development between Hockey India and the German Hockey Federation (Deutscher Hockey-Bund) is listed among the signed outcomes.
- ✓ 3. The two sides announced the establishment of a bilateral dialogue mechanism on the Indo-Pacific.
- ✗ 4. Neither the official list of outcomes nor the joint statement mentions opening an Honorary Consul of Germany in Lucknow.
Remember · Merz visit, Jan 2026: AIIA signed with Charité (not Hamburg), Hockey India with German Hockey Federation, plus a new Indo-Pacific dialogue; no Lucknow honorary consul.
