Which state is correctly matched with the institution it first had?
- 1. Kerala: an ombudsman for local government
- 2. Rajasthan: Panchayati Raj
- 3. Maharashtra: the Lokayukta
- 4. Goa: the first state to pass an RTI law
A1, 2 and 3 ✓ Correct
B1, 3 and 4
C2 and 3
D1, 2, 3 and 4
Correct answer: (A) 1, 2 and 3 — Items 1, 2 and 3 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1, 2 and 3.
Explanation
★Items 1, 2 and 3 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1, 2 and 3.
★Kerala set up an ombudsman for local government.
★Rajasthan was the first state to introduce Panchayati Raj.
★Maharashtra was the first state to set up the Lokayukta.
★Item 4 is wrong, because Tamil Nadu was the first state to pass an RTI law, in 1997.
★Goa was not the first state to enact a right-to-information law.
★So only the Goa pairing is incorrect.
