Correct:
D
Explanation
India's status regarding international human rights instruments varies by treaty. Here is the status for each option:
- Convention on the Nationality of Married Women (1957): India signed this convention on May 15, 1957, but has not yet ratified it. This makes it the correct answer.
- Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989): India acceded to this in 1992. In international law, accession has the same legal effect as ratification.
- CEDAW (1979): India signed this in 1980 and ratified it in 1993.
- Convention on the Political Rights of Women (1952): India signed this in 1953 and ratified it in 1961.
Another well-known example of an instrument signed but not yet ratified by India is the Convention against Torture (CAT), which India signed in 1997.
