How many administrative divisions are there in Rajasthan?

Explanation

Rajasthan is divided into seven administrative divisions, also called commissionerates: Jaipur, Jodhpur, Udaipur, Bikaner, Ajmer, Kota and Bharatpur. The official Raj Masters portal of the Government of Rajasthan lists the revenue-statistics item "DIVISION RAJASTHAN" with a count of 7, which directly supports option B. The point of the question is the administrative tier, not a count of districts, constituencies or police units. Each division is headed by a Divisional Commissioner, so the division functions as an intermediate administrative layer for grouping districts under state-level supervision.

Why the other options are wrong

• (A) Five is too low because the official Raj Masters count for "DIVISION RAJASTHAN" is 7.
• (C) Ten does not match the administrative-division count; Raj Masters records 7 divisions for Rajasthan.
• (D) Twelve is not supported by the official division count, which is 7.

Concept

This tests Rajasthan's administrative structure, especially the division-level layer between the state and districts. It recurs in RAS because polity and administration questions often check whether candidates can separate divisions, districts and electoral units.
