The correct answer is: A. Hiroshi Marui
Hiroshi Marui is a Japanese Indologist who has been awarded the third Indian Council of Cultural Relations (ICCR) distinguished Indologist Award for the year 2017. He is a professor of Sanskrit at the University of Tokyo and has been studying Indian culture and languages for over 30 years. He is the author of several books on Indian philosophy and literature, and has also translated several Sanskrit texts into Japanese.
The ICCR distinguished Indologist Award is given to scholars who have made significant contributions to the study of Indian culture and languages. The award was established in 2015 to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the ICCR.
The other options are incorrect because they are not the names of Japanese professors who have been awarded the ICCR distinguished Indologist Award.
