Correct Answerसही उत्तर
B. Atal Bihari VajpayeeB. अटल बिहारी वाजपेयी
Explanationव्याख्या
Atal Bihari Vajpayee became Prime Minister on 16 May 1996.
His government lasted only 13 days because it could not secure the required majority support in the Lok Sabha.
He resigned on 28 May 1996.
This episode illustrates that the formal appointment of a Prime Minister must be supported by the ability to command confidence in the Lok Sabha.
Vajpayee subsequently returned as Prime Minister in 1998 and again headed the government from 1999 to 2004.
His brief first tenure is frequently examined in questions concerning short-lived Union governments.
अटल बिहारी वाजपेयी 16 मई 1996 को प्रधानमंत्री बने। लोकसभा में आवश्यक बहुमत का समर्थन प्राप्त न कर पाने के कारण उनकी सरकार केवल 13 दिन चली। उन्होंने 28 मई 1996 को त्यागपत्र दे दिया। यह घटना दर्शाती है कि प्रधानमंत्री की औपचारिक नियुक्ति के साथ लोकसभा का विश्वास प्राप्त करने की क्षमता भी आवश्यक होती है। वाजपेयी 1998 में पुनः प्रधानमंत्री बने और 1999 से 2004 तक भी सरकार का नेतृत्व किया। उनका पहला संक्षिप्त कार्यकाल अल्पकालिक केंद्रीय सरकारों से संबंधित प्रश्नों में महत्वपूर्ण है।
