Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B
Explanation

Exercise IBSAMAR is a trilateral maritime exercise involving the navies of India, Brazil, and South Africa, not Sri Lanka [1]. The acronym IBSA stands for the India-Brazil-South Africa Dialogue Forum [1]. The fifth edition of this exercise (IBSAMAR V) was held in February 2016 off the west coast of India, with the harbour phase conducted at Goa. This marked a significant milestone as it was the first time the exercise was conducted in Indian waters. Prior to this fifth edition, all previous iterations of IBSAMAR were held off the coast of South Africa. Therefore, statement 1 is incorrect because it misidentifies the participating countries, while statements 2 and 3 are correct regarding the location of the fifth edition and the historical locations of previous editions respectively.
