The Correct Option is C

Approach Solution - 1

This question tests recall of the 2018 recipient of the Seoul Peace Prize. Reviewing each name:

  1. Kofi Annan: Not the recipient of this particular honour in 2018.
  2. Angela Merkel: Also not awarded the 2018 Seoul Peace Prize.
  3. Narendra Modi: Conferred with the prize for his contribution to economic growth and international cooperation efforts.
  4. Putin: Not linked to this award either.

Narendra Modi stands out as the correct recipient among the four names.

The correct answer is Narendra Modi.

Approach Solution -2

Awards like this are typically announced along with the specific achievements being recognised, so matching the achievement cited for 2018 to the right leader is another way to answer this.

  1. Kofi Annan: His recognitions were generally tied to his work at the United Nations, not to India's economic reforms, which is what the 2018 citation was about.
  2. Angela Merkel: Her international recognitions have centred on her leadership within Europe, not on India-specific economic initiatives.
  3. Narendra Modi: The 2018 citation specifically credited him for advancing India's economic growth and deepening global economic cooperation, aligning exactly with the reasoning behind that year's award.
  4. Putin: His international recognitions relate to different areas altogether, not to the citation given for the 2018 Seoul Peace Prize.

Matching the specific achievement cited for the award to the right leader identifies Narendra Modi as the recipient.

Therefore, the correct answer is Narendra Modi.
