Which state was formed from the Gujarati-speaking region of Bombay and described as the 15th state according to the source?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
B. GujaratB. गुजरात
Explanationव्याख्या
According to the source, Gujarat was formed by separating the Gujarati-speaking region of Bombay and is identified as the 15th state.
The source's table gives Gujarat's formation date as 1 May 1960.
It also states that Bombay was divided in 1960 into Maharashtra and Gujarat.
This is another major example of territorial reorganisation following linguistic considerations.
The source later provides a chronological list of newly formed states, allowing students to connect dates and state numbers with individual states.
For examination purposes, remember Gujarat—1 May 1960—formed from the Gujarati-speaking region of Bombay—15th state according to the source.
स्रोत के अनुसार बंबई के गुजराती भाषी क्षेत्र को अलग करके गुजरात राज्य बनाया गया और इसे भारत का 15वां राज्य बताया गया है। स्रोत की नए राज्यों की सूची में गुजरात की गठन तिथि 1 मई 1960 दी गई है। स्रोत यह भी बताता है कि 1960 में बंबई को महाराष्ट्र और गुजरात नामक दो राज्यों में विभाजित किया गया। यह भाषाई आधार पर क्षेत्रीय पुनर्गठन का महत्वपूर्ण उदाहरण है। परीक्षा के लिए संबंध याद रखें—गुजरात, 1 मई 1960, बंबई के गुजराती भाषी क्षेत्र से गठन, 15वां राज्य।
