Correct Answerसही उत्तर

A. Mahatma GandhiA. महात्मा गांधी

Explanationव्याख्या

The correct answer is Mahatma Gandhi.
According to the source, Mahatma Gandhi never won the Nobel Peace Prize.
The book states that his final nomination came just weeks after his assassination in January 1948.
It further says that at that point in the Nobel Committee's history, a prize had never been awarded posthumously, although the original governing charter allowed this in extenuating circumstances.
Therefore the source-supported revision chain is: Mahatma Gandhi — NOT a Nobel Peace Prize winner — final nomination shortly after his assassination in January 1948 according to source — Nobel Committee had not then awarded a prize posthumously — original governing charter allowed it in extenuating circumstances according to the book.
Kailash Satyarthi, Hargobind Khurana and Rabindranath Tagore are the other options.
The source does not give their respective Nobel categories or years in this entry.
Therefore those details have not been added.
Quick revision: Among these options, the person NOT honoured with the Nobel Prize = Mahatma Gandhi.
Hence option (a) is correct.

सही उत्तर Mahatma Gandhi है। स्रोत के अनुसार Mahatma Gandhi ने कभी Nobel Peace Prize नहीं जीता। Book बताती है कि उनकी final nomination January 1948 में उनकी assassination के कुछ सप्ताह बाद आई थी। Source आगे कहती है कि उस समय तक Nobel Committee ने कभी posthumously prize प्रदान नहीं किया था, हालांकि उसकी original governing charter extenuating circumstances में इसकी अनुमति देती थी। इसलिए source-supported revision chain है: Mahatma Gandhi — Nobel Peace Prize Winner नहीं — January 1948 में assassination — उसके कुछ सप्ताह बाद final nomination according to source — उस समय Nobel Committee द्वारा कोई posthumous prize नहीं — Original Charter में exceptional circumstances की अनुमति according to source। Kailash Satyarthi, Hargobind Khurana और Rabindranath Tagore अन्य options हैं। Source इस entry में उनके Nobel categories और years नहीं देती, इसलिए outside details add नहीं की गई हैं। Quick revision: इन options में Nobel Prize से सम्मानित नहीं = Mahatma Gandhi। इसलिए विकल्प (a) सही उत्तर है।
