Question

In November 1949, Nathuram Godse (who shot Mahatma Gandhi) was hanged at jail __________.
A. Gujarat
B. MP
C. Ambala
D. Mumbai

Answer 1

Hint: Gandhi was assassinated on 30 January 1948 in the compound of Birla House. Godse considered Gandhi to have been excessively obliging to Muslims during the partition of India in 1947.

Complete answer: At some point after 5 PM as per witnesses, Gandhi had arrived on a raised yard behind Birla House where he had been directing gatherings of individuals with separate faiths. As Gandhi strolled toward the dais, Godse staked out from the group flanking Gandhi's way. He then shot three bullets into Gandhi's chest and abdomen. Gandhi tumbled to the ground. He was carried back to his room in Birla House. However, an agent after some point later came outside to declare his passing. Godse was caught by individuals from the group and was then handed over to the police. The Gandhi murder preliminary opened in May 1948 in Delhi's Red Fort, with Godse the main culprit, and his colleague Narayan Apte and six others as the co-litigants. Godse and Apte were condemned to death on 8 November 1949. They were hanged in the Ambala prison on 15 November 1949.
Therefore, “C” is the right answer.

Note: Nathuram Godse, a supporter of Hindu patriotism, an individual from the ideological group the Hindu Mahasabha, and a previous individual from the Hindu patriot volunteer association Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).
