The ‘Vidhana Soudha’ in Bengaluru, the seat of the Karnataka Legislature, was built during the tenure of:

Kengal Hanumanthaiah
S.M. Krishna
B.S. Yediyurappa
Ramakrishna Hegde

The correct answer is: A) Kengal Hanumanthaiah.

The Vidhan Soudha is the seat of the Karnataka Legislature. It is located in Bangalore, the capital of Karnataka. The building was designed by architect H.V. Haleshappa and was built between 1952 and 1956. It is one of the largest legislative buildings in India.

Kenggal Hanumanthaiah was the Chief Minister of Karnataka from 1952 to 1956. He was the one who initiated the construction of the Vidhan Soudha. The building was completed during his tenure as Chief Minister.

S.M. Krishna was the Chief Minister of Karnataka from 1999 to 2004. B.S. Yediyurappa was the Chief Minister of Karnataka from 2007 to 2011 and again from 2018 to 2019. Ramakrishna Hegde was the Chief Minister of Karnataka from 1983 to 1988.

All of these Chief Ministers have made significant contributions to the development of Karnataka. However, it was Kengal Hanumanthaiah who initiated the construction of the Vidhan Soudha, which is one of the most iconic buildings in Bangalore.
