Who conferred the title of "Bharat Bhaskar" upon Rabindranath Tagore ?

  • A.Maharaja Radha Kishore Manikya
  • B.Maharaja Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya
  • C.Maharaja Bir Chandra Manikya
  • D.Maharaja Dhanya Manikya

Answer: B

The title was conferred by Maharaja Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya.

Rabindranath Tagore had a long friendship with four generations of Tripura's rulers, and in 1941, shortly before the poet's death, Maharaja Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya honoured him with the title Bharat Bhaskar (Sun of India).

The other kings belong to earlier parts of that friendship: Bir Chandra Manikya first wrote to the young Tagore after reading his poems, and Radha Kishore Manikya was his close friend and patron. Dhanya Manikya ruled around 1500, centuries before Tagore.
