RRB NTPC 2024 CBT 1 Question Paper (28-Aug-2025) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is
Nagaland

To solve this question, we need to identify which Indian state benefits from special provisions under Article 371A due to its unique customary laws and land ownership practices. Let's analyze each option.

  1. Sikkim: Article 371F provides special provisions for Sikkim, not Article 371A. This is to accommodate the unique circumstances and agreements made during Sikkim's inclusion in India in 1975.
  2. Mizoram: Mizoram benefits from special provisions under Article 371G, which protects its social practices and customary laws. Article 371A does not apply here.
  3. Nagaland: This state is granted special provisions under Article 371A. It includes protections for religious and social practices, customary laws, administration of civil and criminal justice, and ownership and transfer of land and its resources according to local laws. This is the correct answer.
  4. Manipur: Manipur benefits from Article 371C, which establishes certain administrative arrangements, but it is not related to Article 371A.

Based on the above analysis, the correct answer is Nagaland. Article 371A is specifically meant for Nagaland to protect its unique cultural identity and practices.
