Answer 1

Answer:

B. Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) and NeGD

The UMANG platform was developed by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) and the National e-Governance Division (NeGD) of the Government of India.

UMANG is a key initiative under the 'Digital India' program.
