a. Karnataka
b. Kerala
c. TN
d. WB

ANSWER: Kerala
 
Kerala is set to pay a solatium of Rs. 50 lakh to the family. The late commando’s wife, Radhika, will be given a government job and the entire education expenses of his daughter, Vismaya, would be borne by the government. The Cabinet, which took up the issue as the first item of the agenda, decided to carry out renovation to the 10-km Kollengode-Elampilassery road leading to Niranjan’s house at a cost of Rs. 4 crore. Elampilassery government ITI will also be renamed as Lt. Col. Niranjan memorial government ITI.
