- B.Sudha Murty
- C.Dr Kiran Bedi

Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Dr Shobhana Radhakrishna, described as the Katha Vachika who presented the narration.

The detail is the sort an examiner picks up because it pairs a name with a form of narration: a katha is a told story rather than a lecture, and here it was used to mark the 151st birth anniversary of Patel on Rashtriya Ekta Diwas, with the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi among the guests.
