Which among the following was the first state in India to constitute an institution of Lok Ayukta?
Answer: C
Maharashtra was the first state to constitute the Lokayukta institution, under its Act of 1971, which began to function in 1972, so (C) is the key.
Karnataka, Kerala and Rajasthan set up their Lokayuktas later, and Karnataka's became widely known only after its 1984 Act. Odisha passed an Act in 1970 but it did not become operative, which is why Maharashtra is taken as the first.
The Maharashtra Lokayukta and Upalokayuktas Act was passed in 1971 and brought into force in 1972, and it served as a model that other states, such as Rajasthan and Karnataka, followed.
