Who amongst the following was the first woman chief - minister of U.P. State ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
The correct choice is: Sucheta Kriplani
Sucheta Kripalani became Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh in 1963 – the first woman to be Chief Minister of any Indian state.
‘Sarojini Naidu’ was the first woman Governor of U.P., not Chief Minister; ‘Mayawati’ became CM much later (1995).
Hence the answer is Sucheta Kriplani.
