Correct Answerसही उत्तर

D. 1954D. 1954

Explanationव्याख्या

The correct answer is 1954.
According to the source, the Bharat Ratna Award was instituted in 1954 to recognise exceptional service or performance of the highest order without distinction of race, occupation, position or sex.
The question groups Bharat Ratna and Padma Vibhushan and asks the year in which these awards were instituted; the printed solution selects 1954.
The explanation also provides a hierarchy of civilian awards.
It states that Padma Bhushan is the third-highest civilian award in the Republic of India, after Bharat Ratna and Padma Vibhushan, followed by Padma Shree.
Therefore the source-supported revision chain is: Bharat Ratna and Padma Vibhushan → instituted in 1954 according to the question and solution; Bharat Ratna → exceptional service
performance of the highest order; civilian-award sequence given by source → Bharat Ratna → Padma Vibhushan → Padma Bhushan → Padma Shree.
The other years are distractors.
Quick revision: Bharat Ratna
Padma Vibhushan institution year = 1954 according to source.
Therefore option (d) is correct.

सही उत्तर 1954 है। स्रोत के अनुसार Bharat Ratna Award की स्थापना 1954 में exceptional service या highest order के performance को recognise करने के लिए की गई थी, जिसमें race, occupation, position या sex का distinction नहीं किया जाता। Question Bharat Ratna और Padma Vibhushan दोनों के institution year के बारे में पूछता है और printed solution 1954 को सही बताती है। Explanation civilian awards का क्रम भी देती है। Source के अनुसार Padma Bhushan भारत का third-highest civilian award है, जो Bharat Ratna और Padma Vibhushan के बाद आता है तथा उसके बाद Padma Shree है। इसलिए source-supported revision chain है: Bharat Ratna और Padma Vibhushan → 1954; Bharat Ratna → Highest-order exceptional service/performance; Source hierarchy → Bharat Ratna → Padma Vibhushan → Padma Bhushan → Padma Shree। 1964, 1958 और 1968 distractors हैं। Quick revision: Bharat Ratna/Padma Vibhushan = 1954 according to source। इसलिए विकल्प (d) सही है।
