The correct statements accurately reflect that the BIMSTEC Charter came into legal effect in May 2024, its permanent headquarters is in Dhaka, and the grouping was founded via the 1997 Bangkok Declaration.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the statement concerning the entry into force of the BIMSTEC Charter.
The BIMSTEC Charter officially entered into force on May 20, 2024, after ratification by all seven member states.
The charter provides long-awaited international legal status and institutional architecture to BIMSTEC.
2
Verify the location of the BIMSTEC permanent Secretariat.
The Secretariat is located in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
Dhaka was chosen as the permanent host city, operating since its opening in 2014.
3
Analyze the member country composition.
BIMSTEC has 7 members (Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Myanmar, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Thailand). Maldives and Afghanistan are SAARC members, not BIMSTEC members.
Confusing SAARC membership with BIMSTEC membership is a frequent misattribution error.
4
Verify the founding declaration and year of origin.
BIMSTEC was formed on June 6, 1997, through the Bangkok Declaration.
It expanded later to include Myanmar, Bhutan, and Nepal.
