Question from UPPSC Prelims 2025
Explanation:
Devipatan Division (Mandal) in Uttar Pradesh comprises four districts: Bahraich, Balrampur, Gonda, and Shravasti. Therefore:
– Basti (1) is NOT in Devipatan; it belongs to Basti Division.
– Bahraich (2) is in Devipatan.
– Balrampur (3) is in Devipatan.
Hence, only 2 and 3 are correct.
