Why did Mahatma Gandhi not get Bharat Ratna or the Nobel Peace Prize?
I was curious about why Mahatma Gandhi did not receive the Bharat Ratna or Nobel Peace Prize. Can you tell me more about that?
Sure. Mahatma Gandhi was not awarded the Bharat Ratna during his lifetime because the award was instituted in 1954, five years after his death. As for the Nobel Peace Prize, he was nominated five times but never actually won it. The reasons for this are complex and there are differing opinions on the matter. Some say it was due to political reasons, while others argue that it was because of disagreements within the Nobel Committee.
