Correct Answerसही उत्तर
A. Morarji DesaiA. मोरारजी देसाई
Explanationव्याख्या
Morarji Desai served as Deputy Prime Minister from 1967 to 1969 during Indira Gandhi's government.
He later became Prime Minister in 1977, heading the first non-Congress government at the Union level.
His career therefore included both the Deputy Prime Minister's designation and the office of Prime Minister.
The distinction between these two periods is important for historical questions.
The Deputy Prime Minister's designation was part of the political arrangements of the government rather than a separately established constitutional office.
मोरारजी देसाई 1967 से 1969 तक इंदिरा गांधी की सरकार में उपप्रधानमंत्री रहे। बाद में वे 1977 में प्रधानमंत्री बने और केंद्र में पहली गैर-कांग्रेसी सरकार का नेतृत्व किया। इस प्रकार उनके राजनीतिक जीवन में उपप्रधानमंत्री और प्रधानमंत्री दोनों पदों की भूमिका रही। इन दोनों अवधियों के बीच अंतर ऐतिहासिक प्रश्नों के लिए महत्वपूर्ण है। उपप्रधानमंत्री का पदनाम सरकार की राजनीतिक व्यवस्था का हिस्सा था, न कि संविधान द्वारा स्थापित कोई अलग पद।
