Who received the Sarga Kesari Award at Navaratri Sargotsavam 2026?
- A.A. K. Prasanth
- B.P. R. Rajendran
- C.C. Sadanandan Master
- D.Vidhu-bala
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is P. R. Rajendran, on whom the Vice-President conferred the Sarga Kesari Award in recognition of his contribution to the fine arts. Option A, A. K. Prasanth, is wrong because he is the Working President of the Navaratri Sargotsavam Samiti and was present as an organiser rather than as the awardee. Option C, C. Sadanandan Master, is wrong since he attended the function as a Member of Parliament in the Rajya Sabha. Option D, Vidhu-bala, is wrong as well: she heads the Navaratri Sargotsavam Samiti as its President. Examiners often build a question out of a guest list in exactly this way, so the useful habit is to separate the award winner from the office-bearers and the dignitaries who merely attended the same ceremony.
