India has won the Nehru Cup international football tournament twice. The first win came in 2007 and the second in 2009, both under coach Bob Houghton with Bhaichung Bhutia as captain. The tournament was named after India's first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru.

Bhaichung Bhutia was awarded the Man of the Tournament in Nehru Cup 2009 for his outstanding performance as India's captain and striker. He scored crucial goals and led India to their second consecutive Nehru Cup title. Subrata Paul was the goalkeeper, Mahesh Gawli a defender, and Steven Dias a midfielder.

The statement is false because Bhaichung Bhutia did not captain India for a consecutive three-year period. While he was captain during key tournaments like the Nehru Cup (2007, 2009) and AFC Challenge Cup (2008), the national team captaincy changed multiple times during his career. He served as captain intermittently rather than for a continuous three-year span.

The Nehru Cup 2008 featured five teams: India (hosts), Syria, Kazakhstan, Lebanon, and Mayanmar (Myanmar). Bangladesh did not participate in the 2008 edition. India won the tournament, Syria were runners-up, and Kazakhstan placed third. This was the first edition after the tournament's revival.

Brazil has never appeared in the Nehru Cup tournament. The Nehru Cup primarily featured Asian, African, and occasionally European national teams. Argentina, Uruguay, and India have all participated - India being the most frequent competitor and winner. The tournament focused on teams from Asia and invited guests.

The correct URL for Microsoft Support is support.microsoft.com. Microsoft uses subdomain structure where product and service names come before the main domain.

Lalu Prasad Yadav was invited to speak at Harvard University in 2005, where he discussed governance and development in Bihar. His presentation on Bihar's turnaround was well-received. None of the other options - Rajiv Gandhi, Indira Gandhi, or Manmohan Singh - are documented as having delivered speeches at Harvard during their tenures.

Dr. Manmohan Singh served as Governor of the Reserve Bank of India from 1976-1980 before becoming Finance Minister and later Prime Minister. I.K. Gujral and Vimal Jalan also served as RBI governors but in different periods (Gujral in late 1980s, Jalan in 1990s). Y.K. Reddy's role is unclear but was not during 1976-80.

Gulzarilal Nanda was India's second Prime Minister, serving twice as interim PM after Nehru's death in 1964 and Shastri's death in 1966. Lal Bahadur Shastri was the third PM, Ch. Charan Singh the fifth, and Morarji Desai the first non-Congress PM (fourth overall). Nada never served a full term but holds the position in sequence.
