Q83 (UPPCS/2022) Polity & Governance › Preamble, Union & Territory, Citizenship

By which amendment of the Constitution, 'Delhi' has been made National Capital Region ?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B

Explanation

The 69th Constitutional Amendment Act, 1991 conferred a special status on the Union Territory of Delhi by redesignating it as the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi. It inserted Article 239AA and Article 239AB into the Constitution, providing for a Legislative Assembly and a Council of Ministers for Delhi. Although the question uses the term "National Capital Region" (which technically refers to the broader planning area established by the NCR Planning Board Act, 1985), the 69th Amendment is the constitutional provision that changed Delhi's status.

  • 70th Amendment: Provided for the inclusion of members of the Legislative Assemblies of Delhi and Puducherry in the electoral college for the election of the President.
  • 73rd Amendment: Granted constitutional status to Panchayati Raj institutions.
  • 75th Amendment: Provided for the setting up of State-level Rent Control Tribunals.
