RaghuvirChaudury, who was reentry awarded Sahitya Academy Puraskar, enriched the literature in

The correct answer is B) Gujarati. Raghuvir Chaudhary was a Gujarati novelist from Gujarat, and his Sahitya Akademi recognition came for his work in Gujarati, including the novel Amrita. The question's 'reentry' wording is loose, but the language is unaffected.

• A) Marathi: Marathi writers such as V. S. Khandekar belong to a different literary tradition. Chaudhary's work is not in Marathi.
• C) Kannada: Kannada laureates such as U. R. Ananthamurthy are from Karnataka's literary sphere. This is not Chaudhary's language.
• D) Hindi: Hindi is a separate Sahitya Akademi language. Chaudhary's contribution was to Gujarati, so Hindi is wrong.

The core concept is that Sahitya Akademi, set up in 1954 as a national academy of letters, gives awards language-wise across the 24 languages in the Eighth Schedule. Each award is tied to a specific language, so knowing the regional writer is the key to the answer. For Mains, this links to the Eighth Schedule and to the role of constitutional bodies in promoting languages.

Trap: Candidates pick a language because of a vaguely familiar name or because they recall the 'Gujarat' link. Always match the author to the language in which the award-winning book was written.
