Explanation

Wardha district (misspelled as Wardhaman in option) in West Bengal became the first fully literate district outside Kerala. Kerala has traditionally had the highest literacy rates in India, but West Bengal achieved this milestone in Wardha district through sustained literacy campaigns. This achievement was significant as it proved high literacy was attainable beyond Kerala's favorable socio-economic conditions.
