Who amongst the following are members of the Jury to select the recipient of 'Gandhi Peace Prize'?

Correct Option

The Gandhi Peace Prize was instituted by the Government of India in 1995 to commemorate the 125th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. It recognizes individuals and institutions for their contributions towards social, economic, and political transformation through non-violence and other Gandhian methods.

The selection jury for the Gandhi Peace Prize is composed of:

• The Prime Minister of India (Chairperson)
• The Chief Justice of India (Member)
• The Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha (Member)
• Two eminent persons (Members)

Therefore, the Prime Minister of India (II), the Chief Justice of India (III), and the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha (IV) are members of the jury.

Incorrect Options

The President of India (I) is not a member of the selection jury for the Gandhi Peace Prize. The jury explicitly includes the Prime Minister, the Chief Justice of India, the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, and two eminent persons.

• Option 1 (II and IV only) is incorrect as it omits the Chief Justice of India, who is a member.
• Option 2 (I, II and III) is incorrect because it wrongly includes the President of India and omits the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha.
• Option 4 (I and III only) is incorrect as it wrongly includes the President of India and omits both the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha.
