{'solidarity': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'narendra modi': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'manmohan singh': [1, 0, 2, 2], 'foreign policy': [1, 0, 1, 1], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13], 'asian': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'afro': [0, 0, 0, 1]}

The correct answer is option 3, J.L. Nehru. He was the first Prime Minister of India and played a crucial role in shaping India`s foreign policy. Nehru believed in the concept of Afro-Asian solidarity, which aimed at promoting mutual cooperation and understanding among Asian and African nations. He advocated for decolonization, anti-imperialism, and the promotion of peace and cooperation among these nations.

Option 1, Narendra Modi, is incorrect because although he has also emphasized India`s relations with Africa and Asia in his foreign policy, it was Nehru who initiated this concept.

Option 2, I.K. Gujral, is incorrect because although he served as the Prime Minister of India from 1997 to 1998, he did not initiate Afro-Asian solidarity as a central element of India`s foreign policy.

Option 4, Manmohan Singh, is incorrect because although he served as the Prime Minister of India from 2004 to 2014, he did not initiate Afro-Asian solidarity as a central element of India`s foreign policy.

Thus, the correct answer is option 3, J.L. Nehru.
