Answer: C

Zakir Husain had the shortest tenure, dying in office in May 1969 after less than two years.

He was the first president to die in office and the first Muslim to hold it. V.V. Giri, then vice-president, acted as president, and when he resigned to contest the election Chief Justice M. Hidayatullah acted in his place.
