Detailed Solution
The Devipatan Division of Uttar Pradesh currently consists of four districts—
Gonda, Bahraich, Balrampur and Shrawasti. Official Government of Uttar Pradesh records also list these four districts under Devipatan Division.
Therefore, Bahraich is a part of Devipatan Division and Balrampur is also a part of Devipatan Division.
However, Basti is not part of Devipatan Division. Basti belongs to the separate Basti Division, which consists of Basti, Sant Kabir Nagar and Siddharthnagar districts.
