Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Pratibha Patil was the first woman to hold the office of President of India. She served as the 12th President of India from July 25, 2007, to July 25, 2012. Here's why the other options are incorrect: - Option (1): Pratibha Patil: This is the correct answer, as she was the first woman to become the President of India. - Option (2): Droupadi Murmu: Droupadi Murmu became the 15th President of India in 2022 and is the second woman to hold this office. However, she was not the first. - Option (3): Indira Gandhi: Indira Gandhi was a prominent political leader who served as the Prime Minister of India twice (from 1966–1977 and 1980–1984). She never held the office of President. - Option (4): None of the above: This option is incorrect because Pratibha Patil indeed holds the distinction of being the first woman President of India. Answer: $\boxed{\text{Pratibha Patil}}$
