Appeared in: AIIMS Raipur NO- 2019 (shift 3rd)

Explanation

Pran Kumar Sharma, popularly known as Pran, is the celebrated Indian cartoonist who created the iconic comic book character, Chacha Chaudhary.
The character, a wise old man whose brain works 'faster than a computer', first appeared in the Hindi magazine Lotpot in 1971.
Chacha Chaudhary is famously accompanied by his loyal and powerful sidekick, Sabu, an alien from the planet Jupiter.

Option A: This option is incorrect because the creator of Chacha Chaudhary, Pran Kumar Sharma, is present in the list of options.
Option C: R. K. Laxman is a legendary cartoonist, but he is famous for creating 'The Common Man' and his daily cartoon strip 'You Said It' in The Times of India.
Option D: P.K.S. Kutty was a renowned political cartoonist, known for his sharp commentary on political events, not for creating children's comic characters.

Clinical Relevance

Nursing practice connection: This is primarily an exam-oriented knowledge point with limited direct bedside application, so retain Indian Cartoonists and their Creations as background academic context rather than a clinical decision trigger.
Recognizing prominent figures and their contributions is a key part of the general knowledge section in many competitive exams, including those for nursing positions.
This question assesses a candidate's awareness of popular Indian culture and media, which can be part of a holistic evaluation.
What if the question had asked about the creator of the 'Amar Chitra Katha' series? The answer would be Anant Pai.

How to Approach the Question

First, identify the core subject of the question, which is the comic character 'Chacha Chaudhary'.
The question asks to identify the 'cartoonist' or creator. This is a factual recall question based on general knowledge.
Scan the options. Pran Kumar Sharma is famously associated with Chacha Chaudhary.
Mentally cross-check the other options. R. K. Laxman is linked to 'The Common Man', and Kutty to political cartoons, making them incorrect for this question.
Since a correct option is present, 'None of these' is also incorrect. Select the option that correctly pairs the creator with the creation.
