Explanationव्याख्या
All five statements are correct according to the source.
Ravi Deecee is identified as the Publisher and Managing Director of DC Books.
He received the French honour Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres, or Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters, from H.E.
Mr.
Thierry Mathou, the French Ambassador to India.
The recognition was connected with Deecee's contribution to the publishing world and particularly his work in promoting multilingualism, literary innovation and global cultural collaboration.
Under his leadership, DC Books became a leading Indian publishing house and earned recognition for translating prominent French literary works into Malayalam.
The source names authors including Annie Ernaux, Céline, Johanna Gustawsson, Jean-Paul Sartre, Emmanuel Carrère, David Diop and Maryse Condé.
The award itself is also important from a static-current-affairs perspective.
The Ordre des Arts et des Lettres was instituted in 1957.
According to the source, it forms a core component of French cultural policy and recognises individuals who have made outstanding contributions to arts and culture in France and around the world.
Le Corbusier and Marcel Pagnol are given as examples of notable past recipients.
Competitive examinations may test the year of institution, country associated with the honour, recipient, organisation, language into which French literature was translated or the identity of the Ambassador who conferred it.
Students should therefore remember the connected chain: France → Ordre des Arts et des Lettres → instituted 1957 → arts and culture → Ravi Deecee → DC Books → French literature into Malayalam → Thierry Mathou.
Statement 1 correctly describes Ravi Deecee's position.
Statement 2 correctly identifies Thierry Mathou.
Statement 3 correctly describes DC Books' translation work.
Statement 4 gives the correct institution year, and statement 5 correctly states the purpose of the award.
Therefore all five statements are correct and option D is the answer.
