- A.Sushil Kumar Awasthi
- B.Brij Kishore Singh
- C.Bharat Lal
- D.Anita Karn
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Brij Kishore Singh. He is an Indian Forest Service officer of the 1976 batch from the Karnataka cadre, and the Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to him by the Union Environment Minister in recognition of decades of work in forest and wildlife conservation, including efforts against sandalwood smuggling and against the activities of the brigand Veerappan. Option A names the Director General of Forests and Special Secretary in the environment ministry, who attended the event but was not the awardee. Option C names a former Secretary General of the National Human Rights Commission, also present among the guests rather than among those honoured. Option D names the President of the Indian Forest Service Association, the body that organises the awards, which again is a different role from that of the recipient. Only option B matches the citation.
