Explanationव्याख्या

The correct answer is 1967-1969.
According to the source, Morarji Desai served as Deputy Prime Minister of India from 21 March 1967 to 6 December 1969.
The book further states that he was the second Deputy Prime Minister of India after Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel.
The source gives Patel's period as 15 August 1947 to 15 December 1950.
Therefore the complete source-supported revision chain is: Morarji Desai → Deputy Prime Minister of India → 21 March 1967 to 6 December 1969 → second Deputy Prime Minister according to source → preceded in this office by Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel → source period for Patel: 15 August 1947 to 15 December 1950.
The other periods in the options are distractors.
The exact dates supplied in the explanation make the broader option 1967-1969 easy to identify.
Quick revision: Morarji Desai = Deputy PM = 1967-1969 according to source.
Therefore option (c) is correct.

सही उत्तर 1967-1969 है। स्रोत के अनुसार Morarji Desai ने 21 March 1967 से 6 December 1969 तक भारत के Deputy Prime Minister के रूप में कार्य किया। Book आगे बताती है कि वे Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel के बाद India के second Deputy Prime Minister थे। Source Patel की अवधि 15 August 1947 से 15 December 1950 बताती है। इसलिए complete source-supported revision chain है: Morarji Desai → Deputy Prime Minister → 21 March 1967 से 6 December 1969 → Source के अनुसार Second Deputy PM → Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel के बाद। अन्य periods distractors हैं। Explanation में exact dates दिए होने के कारण broad option 1967-1969 आसानी से identify किया जा सकता है। Quick revision: Morarji Desai = Deputy PM = 1967-1969 according to source। इसलिए विकल्प (c) सही है।
