Solution

The correct option is C Vishwanath Pratap Singh
With the defeat of the Congress party, Rajiv Gandhi's tenure ended, and several political parties came together to form a coalition called the Janata Dal. Vishwanath Pratap Singh became the next Prime Minister of India. However, he resigned the post on 7 November 1990 after receiving a vote of no confidence in the Lok Sabha.
