Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin and Mahatma Gandhi have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, with some selections even overlapping.
India’s non-violence icon Mahatma Gandhi secured five nominations, with the final one coming days before his assassination in 1948.
USSR’S infamous leader Joseph Stalin was nominated for the award in 1945 and 1948. The nominations were awarded for his role in ending World War 2.
Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler’s nomination in 1939 was a “satiric criticism” of a Swedish politician. The nomination was never meant to convert.
Some notable Nobel Peace Prize winners include Malala Yousafzai, Mother Teresa and Aung San Suu Kyi.
