महाराष्ट्रातील भारतरत्नांबाबत काय खरे नाही ?

The correct answer is Option A (The first one to be awarded was Maharshee Dhondo Keshav Karve (1958)).

Key Points:
• Analyzing the options concerning Bharat Ratna recipients associated with Maharashtra as of 2012:
• Option 1: Dr. Bhagwan Das was conferred the Bharat Ratna in 1955, but among individuals born in Maharashtra, Maharshi Dhondo Keshav Karve received it on his 100th birthday in 1958.
• However, the official MPSC Final Answer Key designated Option 1 as the correct answer (i.e. 'not true' statement in the context of the question paper).
• Option 2: Two classical/playback vocalists associated with Maharashtra had received it by 2012: Lata Mangeshkar (2001) and Pandit Bhimsen Joshi (2008).
• Option 3: J. R. D. Tata (1992) remains the sole industrialist awarded the Bharat Ratna.
• Option 4: Dr. B. R. Ambedkar was honoured posthumously in 1990.
• Per MPSC official key, option (1) is the required answer.
• Key Takeaway: Per MPSC official key, statement 1 regarding Maharashtrian Bharat Ratna recipients was marked as the correct answer.
