Solution

The correct option is B Mrs. Indira Gandhi
The June 12, 1975 verdict of the Allahabad High Court convicted the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi of electoral malpractices and debarred her from holding any elected post. The verdict was delivered by Justice Jagmohanlal Sinha and led to the imposition of Emergency by Indira Gandhi in India on June 25, 1975.
