Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Concept
For an institutional-association question, a person is associated with a college when reliable historical records show a direct role such as proposing it, founding it, or establishing it through an organisation.
A shared city, a similar name, or a general link with education is not enough; each listed institution must be checked independently.
Application
Apply this test to the five statements:
Khalsa College, Mumbai: the college history traces its inception to Dr. B. R. Ambedkar’s 1935 proposal for a higher-education institution in Bombay.
Siddharth College, Mumbai: the People’s Education Society founded by Dr. Ambedkar established Siddharth College in 1946.
Milind College, Aurangabad: Dr. Ambedkar decided to establish Milind Mahavidyalaya in Aurangabad in 1950 through the People’s Education Society.
Contrast
Presidency College, Kolkata is not part of the documented group of institutions connected with Dr. Ambedkar in this question.
National College, Bengaluru is not part of that documented group either.
Cross-check
The supported statements are B, C and D; excluding A and E leaves exactly one offered combination.
Therefore, the answer is Only B, C, D.
