Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. Chief Minister of the State.

The Chief Minister of a state acts as the Vice-Chairman of the concerned Zonal Council on a rotational basis for one year. India is divided into five Zonal Councils—Northern, Southern, Eastern, Western, and Central—to promote cooperation and coordination among states. While the Union Home Minister serves as the Chairman, the Vice-Chairmanship rotates annually among the Chief Ministers of the member states, ensuring equal participation and leadership in addressing regional issues, disputes, and developmental planning within the zone.
