Accolades just do not embrace only success,but many other qualities like Excellence, Ability, Effort et.al in their respective fields.But in our Country it is so harrowing that such honorable Awards are being “SOLD” !! what else can we think of seeing this unfounded selection of awardees for the Highest Civilian Honor. The sanctity of this award has definitely lost its gleam in the eyes of every citizen as its value is being marred by undeserving awardees!
Every citizen is miffed at the way their greenbacks and representation is being misemployed! This is definitely a debaucher to the honor of the most deserving and self respected awardees in the past.
This is the need of the hour for a BRAINTRUST to be constituted and come to consensus to have minimum criteria to confer such a reverence.
If this “selling” practice continues, the “awardees” become celebrities overnight and become no inspiration to the upcoming talent.
If we actually see, there are some personalities from film background who are endowed with PADMA title this year.I don’t give the red light to felicitate these people but THE PICK should be ultimately prudent and cerebral, rather being harebrained and see if they can be a recipient for such a distinguished honor.
I castigate the choice and its so preposterous that people who faced CBI cases are being exhorted for this recognition. I strongly feel that undeserving receiver should have minimum intelligence to repudiate the endowment and try to commemorate truly remarkable Indians for their immaculate rendition in their respective fields.
Its better to abolish the awards than following such ill-practice to save embarassement to the Country.
Does the government pay heed to our common concerns and have largeness of mind hereon!??
