Compare Distinct Column1 values with values in other 3 column.

Is it possible to compare  distinct column values 'PrimeMinister' column values with other 3 columns, and if any of the values match, can we flag it?

Please help on DAX code.

    Hi DeeMag ,

     

    Please create a calculated column like this.

    Flag = 
    VAR _table =
        UNION (
            DISTINCT ( 'Table'[Chief Minister] ),
            DISTINCT ( 'Table'[Deputy] ),
            DISTINCT ( 'Table'[Manager] )
        )
    VAR _result =
        SWITCH (
            TRUE (),
            'Table'[PrimeMinister] = ""
                || ISBLANK ( 'Table'[PrimeMinister] ), 0,
            'Table'[PrimeMinister] IN _table, 1,
            0
        )
    RETURN
        _result
