The bill to create a separate state of Jharkhand to be carved out of Bihar was passed in Lok Sabha on

2nd August, 2000
10th August, 2000
2nd October, 2000
10th October, 2000

The correct answer is: A. 2nd August, 2000.

The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) was a political party that was formed in 1972 to fight for the creation of a separate state of Jharkhand out of the southern districts of Bihar. The party led a long and sustained agitation for the creation of Jharkhand, which finally culminated in the passage of the Jharkhand State Reorganisation Bill in the Lok Sabha on 2nd August, 2000. The bill was passed by the Rajya Sabha on 10th August, 2000 and Jharkhand was officially carved out of Bihar on 15th November, 2000.

The creation of Jharkhand was a major victory for the JMM and its supporters. It was also a significant development in the history of India, as it marked the creation of the 28th state in the country. The creation of Jharkhand has had a positive impact on the development of the region, as it has led to increased investment and employment opportunities. It has also helped to improve the quality of life of the people of Jharkhand.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Option B is incorrect because the Jharkhand State Reorganisation Bill was passed in the Lok Sabha on 2nd August, 2000, not 10th August, 2000.
  • Option C is incorrect because the Jharkhand State Reorganisation Bill was passed in the Rajya Sabha on 10th August, 2000, not 2nd October, 2000.
  • Option D is incorrect because Jharkhand was officially carved out of Bihar on 15th November, 2000, not 10th October, 2000.
