Solution
As a protest to Jallianwala Baug massacre, Rabindranath Tagore returned the title of Sir bestowed upon him by the British Government.
Explanation:
This title was given to him by the British government from King George V in 1915 for his contribution to the literature field. Later in 1919, he returned this title as a protest for the inhuman act of the British in the Jallianwala Bagh, which has killed thousands of people. For the same reason, Gandhiji had returned the Kaiser-i-Hind gold medal, which was given to him by the British government for his work during the Boer War.
