c. Pokhran
d. Barmer

Answer 1

Hint: India's nuclear journey, which began in the 1950s, has matured in terms of its energy and weapons programs. The path of this discovery has been unique to a developing, even poor, nation in that it is essentially a national effort - planned by trained Indian scientists in India using large-scale domestic resources developed on Indian soil.

Complete solution:
The first nuclear test was organized in Pokhran.

The same cannot be said of most others - even those who dominate the global nuclear landscape. India's nuclear quest has been for self-sufficiency and national security, but without resorting to a war-crisis against "eating grass" as opposed to something unfavorable, real or imaginary, and of course.

  The second is that work is being done in its secrecy - something tough in a diverse, democratic politics - avoiding the eyes of the Big Powers, through and after the Cold War era, severely threatened, economic sanctions, technology Denial of and denial of compensation inducements. Those who want to limit nuclear knowledge to a few.

Switch to two historical achievements that take a long time to come: 'Transplant' on May 18, 1974, and five trials on May 13, 1998, both in Pokhran, Rajasthan, in underground tunnels in the heart of the Great Indian Desert.

 Both invited global criticism, termination of contracts from nuclear fuel suppliers, economic sanctions, denials of the latest technology and more. On the contrary, it instilled pride in Indian hearts and minds and also recognition in many world capitals.

This was especially the case in 1974 when India crashed in the All but Gate nuclear centre. A journalist who broke the news - the time, place and what really happened - the editor of India Strategic and my former UNI colleague, Gulshan Luthra, recalls Jail D'Ater of India: "I personally have Mrs Indira Gandhi's reason. To conduct the first trial. He defined two: A. China is aggressive and we should not let it hurt, and B. If it is necessary to obtain membership of the UN Security Council, So be it. "

 On 13 May 1998, India secretly conducted a series of underground nuclear tests with three bombs - two more to follow - again in Pokhran. This codon was beyond the first held under "Smiling Buddha". Pokhran-2 or Operation Shakti-98 consisted of one fusion bomb and four fission bombs. The announcement was dramatic.


Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Note:
Mr. Vajpayee declared India to be a completely nuclear state, and an atomic theory was soon envisaged as a self-abatement on further tests. To do this, the Vajpayee government, as its predecessor PV Narasimha Rao, advised Vajpayee to move forward, but could not do it himself due to US pressure. Pokhran II was all set by the mid-1990s, but until the Americans got wind of it and gave unbearable pressure to thwart it. Vajpayee himself has accepted this fact.
