Which one of the following pairs is NOT correctly matched ?

Result
Your answer: —  ·  Correct: C

Explanation

The pair in Option C is incorrectly matched. The special provisions for the State of Nagaland (Article 371A) were inserted by the 13th Constitutional Amendment Act, 1962, following the 16-point agreement between the Government of India and the Naga People's Convention.

The 14th Constitutional Amendment Act, 1962 provided for the formal incorporation of Pondicherry (now Puducherry) into the Indian Union and empowered Parliament to create legislatures and councils of ministers for certain Union Territories.

The other options are correctly matched:

  • 53rd Amendment (1986): Conferred statehood on Mizoram.
  • 55th Amendment (1986): Conferred statehood on Arunachal Pradesh.
  • 56th Amendment (1987): Conferred statehood on Goa and formed the Union Territory of Daman and Diu.
