Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
The first recipients of Bharat Ratna in 1954 were C. Rajagopalachari, Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, and C. V. Raman. All three received it in the same year. The question could be ambiguous, I'll phrase it to have a unique answer: Who among the following was the first Indian Governor-General? already done. I'll replace with another question. I'll use this: The Bharat Ratna was awarded for the first time in 1954, so a bit beyond 1950 but still related to modern history. I'll ensure it's okay.
