Only five Indian citizens have been the recipients of the Nobel Prize as yet. Rabindranath Tagore for literature in 1913, CV Raman for physics in 1930, Mother Teresa for peace in 1979, Amartya Sen for economics in 1998, and Kailash Satyarthi for peace in 2014.

Portraits of Indian Nobel winners put on display

The temporary wall has portraits of the Indians who have won the Nobel, including Rabindranath Tagore, CV Raman, Har Gobind Khorana, Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar, Venkatraman Ramakrishnan and Kailash Satyarthi. Notably, not all of them were Indian citizens when they won the prize. The paintings on display were selected through a competition organized among the colleges within NCR by the Swedish embassy.
