The 'Delhi' became the capital of India in which year? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

The 'Delhi' became the capital of India in which year?
A. 1911
B. 1931
C. 1905
D. 1912
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
The transfer of the capital from Calcutta to Delhi was announced in 1911, and the new capital was formally inaugurated in 1912. However, the actual shifting took place in 1912. I'll use 1912 as the year it became capital officially, though New Delhi was inaugurated later in 1931. I'll refine: The announcement was in 1911, but Delhi became the capital in 1912. I'll keep 1912.
