Answer:

Liz Truss had shortest time in office

Verified answer

Answer:

The Prime Minister of India who had the shortest time in office was Gulzarilal Nanda. He served as the Acting Prime Minister of India twice, both times for very short durations:

Explanation:

• First Term: He served as the Acting Prime Minister from May 27, 1964, to June 9, 1964, for a total of 13 days following the death of Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru.

• Second Term: He served as the Acting Prime Minister again from January 11, 1966, to January 24, 1966, for a total of 13 days following the death of Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri.

Gulzarilal Nanda's two short stints as Acting Prime Minister make him the Prime Minister with the shortest time in office in India's history.
