A Cut in Nobel Prize Money

alfred nobel

Nobel Prize award was started by a will of Swedish philanthropist inventor Alfred Nobel and were first awarded in 1901. As the Nobel Prize season approaches, discussion starts on media and social circles about it. 20 % cut in Nobel Prize money is decided by committee. Meeting of committee for award of Nobel Prize in field of science, human rights, peace, medicine, literature and economics is going to be held in Stockholm, capital city of Sweden. Official announcement of award will be on Friday 12 October. 231 personalities from the world are in contest including an anti-veil woman from Afghanistan and an Egyptian Nun. Many people claims that Nobel Prize award is biased at some extent, as committee did not nominate any Muslim who has anti-Israel or anti-west thoughts despite what ever he done in his field. And usually anti-Islam people had nominated for award, as done in current year in case of nominee from Afghanistan.
