Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B
Explanation

Correct answer: option 2 (1 and 4 only). Mohammad Hidayatullah succeeded B.D. Jatti as Vice‑President and is recorded among those who served as acting Presidents, which confirms his vice‑presidential service. Shankar Dayal Sharma likewise served as Vice‑President (and later became President), a well‑known sequence in India’s constitutional history. In contrast, Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed and Neelam Sanjiva Reddy are cited in the provided material as Presidents during the periods discussed and are not indicated there to have held the Vice‑Presidency. Hence only Mohammad Hidayatullah and Shankar Dayal Sharma from the list held the office of Vice‑President of India.
