Answer 1

Manipur 

Explanation:

The Maharaja of Manipur, Bodhachandra Singh, signed the Instrument of Accession with the Indian government a few days before Independence on the condition that Manipur's internal autonomy be preserved. The Maharaja staged elections in Manipur in June 1948 under public pressure, and the state became a constitutional monarchy. As a result, Manipur was the first state in India to hold a universal adult franchise election.
