Question

Identify the member of the Constituent Assembly with the help of the following information:

•  He was the President of the Constituent Assembly.
•  He was the first President of the Independent India.

• A. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan
• B. Zakir Hussain
• C. V.V. Giri
• D. Rajendra Prasad

Hint:

Rajendra Prasad = President of the Constituent Assembly + First President of India. This is a common fact-based exam favorite.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Dr. Rajendra Prasad was the President of the Constituent Assembly of India. He presided over its sessions and played a key role in guiding the drafting of the Indian Constitution.
Later, upon India's transition to a republic on 26 January 1950, he was elected as the first President of Independent India, a position he held until 1962.
The other options refer to future Presidents of India: - Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan became the second President.
- Zakir Hussain was the third President.
- V.V. Giri was the fourth President.
Thus, only Rajendra Prasad fits both criteria.
