Governors of Rajasthan MCQ — 3 Practice Questions with Answers

Explanation

The chronological order is Dr. Sampurnanand first, followed by Shri Raghukul Tilak, then Shri Sukh Dev Prasad, and finally Dr. M. Chenna Reddy. Dr. Sampurnanand served in the 1960s, while Shri Raghukul Tilak came later in the late 1970s. Shri Sukh Dev Prasad served after Raghukul Tilak, and Dr. M. Chenna Reddy came after these three. The sequences beginning with Raghukul Tilak or Sukh Dev Prasad miss the earlier tenure of Sampurnanand. The sequence placing Chenna Reddy before Raghukul Tilak also breaks the chronology.

Explanation

Shri Gurumukh Nihal Singh is treated as the first Governor of Rajasthan after the constitutional office of Governor came into operation for the state. Maharaja Sawai Man Singh was connected with the earlier Rajpramukh arrangement, which is a different office and should not be confused with Governor. Shri Kalraj Mishra is a much later Governor of Rajasthan, not the first. Shri Hem Bahadur Singh also does not match the first-holder of the Governor's office. The question is about the Governor, so Gurumukh Nihal Singh is the appropriate answer.

Explanation

Pratibha Patil was the first woman to serve as Governor of Rajasthan, holding the office before she later became President of India. Kamla Beniwal also served as Governor of Rajasthan, but she was not the first woman in that office. Prabha Rau was associated with gubernatorial offices in other states, not as Rajasthan's first woman Governor. Margaret Alva served as Governor of Rajasthan much later, so she cannot be the earliest correct name.
