Which of the following international organizations has no formal structure and secretariat?
The G-8 (Group of Eight), which has reverted to the G-7 (Group of Seven) after Russia's suspension in 2014, operates as an informal forum for the leaders of major industrialized democracies. It does not possess a formal charter, a permanent secretariat, or a fixed bureaucratic structure. The presidency of the G-7 rotates annually among its member states, and the host country is responsible for organizing the annual summit and related preparatory meetings. In contrast, Greenpeace has an international coordinating body (Greenpeace International, a foundation based in Amsterdam) with a board, management team, and staff, overseeing a global network of national/regional organizations. The D-8 (Developing Eight Organization for Economic Cooperation) has a formal structure including a Summit, Council of Ministers, a Commission, and a permanent Secretariat based in Istanbul, Turkey, headed by a Secretary-General. Therefore, among the options provided, the G-8 (now G-7) is the organization that functions without a formal structure or a permanent secretariat.

In 2008, the 15th SAARC Summit was held in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Consequently, the Chairperson of SAARC for that period would have been the then President of Sri Lanka, Mahinda Rajapaksa [2, p3]. Sushil Koirala became Prime Minister of Nepal and chaired SAARC much later, in 2014. As Mahinda Rajapaksa is not listed, and the premise of Sushil Koirala chairing SAARC in 2008 is incorrect, "None of these" is the accurate answer for a 2008 paper. The PDF's answer (b) based on Koirala is anachronistic.
