General KnowledgeStatic General Awareness
- AChaudhary Charan Singh founded Bharatiya Kranti Dal.
- BJagjivan Ram was a member of the Constituent Assembly.
- CJayaprakash Narayan was the founder General Secretary of the Congress Socialist Party.
- DMorarji Desai was the Prime Minister of India from 1977 to 1980.
Explanation
The question asks which statement is not correct. Chaudhary Charan Singh founded the Bharatiya Kranti Dal, Jagjivan Ram was a member of the Constituent Assembly, and Jayaprakash Narayan was the founder general secretary of the Congress Socialist Party in 1934, so options A, B, and C are correct. Morarji Desai, however, was Prime Minister from March 1977 to July 1979, when he resigned; he did not serve 'from 1977 to 1980'. Hence option D is the not-correct statement. Note: UPSC's published key marks option C, but Desai's tenure ended in July 1979.
