Q. Consider the following personalities: - Rabindranath Tagore
- C V Raman
- Amartya Sen
- Mother Teresa
Which of the above have been awarded both the Nobel Prize and the Bharat Ratna?
Answer:
Only 2, 3 and 4
Notes: C V Raman (Nobel Prize in Physics, Bharat Ratna 1954), Amartya Sen (Nobel Prize in Economics 1998, Bharat Ratna 1999), and Mother Teresa (Nobel Peace Prize 1979, Bharat Ratna 1980) received both awards. Rabindranath Tagore won the Nobel Prize in Literature (1913) but was not awarded the Bharat Ratna. Thus, only 2, 3, and 4 are correct.
