Question

B. Although International recognition came to Rabindranath Tagore much earlier, it was Rushdie's book that affected Indian literature in a way that nothing else in this century has done.
C. It was 'Midnight Children's success which gave a whole generation of Indians who had literary inclinations the confidence to embark on literary careers.
D. Rushdie's influence lies in the fact that he made India - rather Indian themes, locales and characters - written about in English popular, even trendy.
