Q1The book “Glimpses of World History” was written by _________.
Explanation
“Glimpses of World History” was written by Jawahar Lal Nehru. It is a collection of letters he wrote to his daughter, Indira, while he was in prison, explaining world history in a broad narrative form. Mahatma Gandhi wrote works such as “The Story of My Experiments with Truth”, not this book. Raja Ram Mohan Roy is known as a major social and religious reformer, not as its author. Sri Aurobindo Ghosh wrote philosophical and nationalist works, but “Glimpses of World History” is associated with Nehru.
