Which of the following was NOT named a Bharat Ratna recipient in 2014?

• A. Sachin Tendulkar
• B. Atal Bihari Vajpayee
• C. C. V. Raman
• D. Madan Mohan Malviya

Answer: (C)

The Bharat Ratna is India’s highest civilian honor, awarded for exceptional contribution in fields like public service, science, arts, literature, and education. In 2014 the recipients were Sachin Tendulkar for sports, Atal Bihari Vajpayee for public service and leadership, and Madan Mohan Malviya for education and public service posthumously. C. V. Raman, a renowned physicist, had already been awarded the Bharat Ratna in an earlier year, so he was not a 2014 honoree. That’s why he is the one not named as a Bharat Ratna recipient in 2014.
