Answer: (B)

Yohei Sasakawa, a Japanese humanitarian leader and chair of The Nippon Foundation, was awarded the Gandhi Peace Prize in 2018. The prize recognizes efforts that advance Gandhian ideals of peace, non-violence, and social welfare. Sasakawa’s decades of work toward global peace and human welfare—especially his campaign to eliminate leprosy, reduce discrimination, and promote health, education, disaster relief, and intergroup dialogue—embody those values. While the other figures listed are prominent in related areas, they did not receive this prize in 2018.
