Which one of the following is the correct chronological order of the formation of the following as full States of the Indian Union?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B
Explanation

The correct chronological sequence by year of attaining full statehood is: Nagaland (1963), Haryana (1966), Sikkim (1975), and Arunachal Pradesh (1987). Nagaland became a state in 1963, Haryana was carved out of Punjab and formed in 1966, Sikkim was integrated as a full state in 1975, and Arunachal Pradesh (formerly NEFA, later a Union Territory) was granted statehood in 1987 [1]. Therefore the option that lists Nagaland → Haryana → Sikkim → Arunachal Pradesh is correct (Option 2).
