Answer

Correct Answer : b ) Pandit Jasraj / पंडित जसराज

Explanation :

A minor planet (asteroid) located between Mars and Jupiter has been named after the great Indian classical musician Pandit Jasraj.

The honour was a tribute to his contribution to Indian classical music, especially his mastery over the Mewati Gharana.

The Government of India honoured him with the Padma Shri in 1975, the Padma Bhushan in 1990 and the Padma Vibhushan in the year 2000.

He was also awarded the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award in 1987.

Hence, (b) is the correct answer.

मंगल और बृहस्पति के बीच स्थित एक छोटे ग्रह (क्षुद्रग्रह) का नाम महान भारतीय शास्त्रीय संगीतकार पंडित जसराज के नाम पर रखा गया है।

यह सम्मान भारतीय शास्त्रीय संगीत में उनके योगदान, विशेष रूप से मेवाती घराने पर उनकी महारत के लिए एक श्रद्धांजलि थी।

भारत सरकार ने उन्हें 1975 में पद्म श्री, 1990 में पद्म भूषण और वर्ष 2000 में पद्म विभूषण से सम्मानित किया।

उन्हें 1987 में संगीत नाटक अकादमी पुरस्कार से भी सम्मानित किया गया।

इसलिए, (b) सही उत्तर है।
