Congrats Dravid.But same time Yuvraj also deserved it.He is the main reason India got 2 world titles and is now an inspiration to those who r suffering from different deceases.The way he fought cancer and came back to cricket got 4 MOM and 1 MOS award in T20s must be an inspiration not only for patients of various deceases but to their dear ones also.
I saw a fashion designer getting Padma Shri. How? I thought these awards are for those who have contributed to the improvement of the human society. How can a fashion designer designing strange clothes serving only the affluent class of the society with a pure business motive can get such a prestigious award?
D. Goel Pkl, Morning 10Am , Saturday, January 26,2013. I am of theviewthat the unthinking practice of giving honours to Indians seem to becontinuation ofthecolonial Honursbeinggiven to Indian Chamchas to hisorHermajesty on theday ofcoronation, birth or every 1st January ofEmpire loyalty. It istime this relic of Imperial slavery (even ifit is saidthatunlike old honours are not supposedto be sported). Aristic honours , mILITARY hONOURSOR EXCEPTIONAL ACHIEVEMENTSIN aRTS ETCCOULDBE LOOKED FOR BY nOBEL ,ANDOTHERSUCH INTERNATIONAL pRIZES. WE MUSTDISCARD THISrAYBAHADURI LEGACY SOONEST. d. GOEL
Now, that it has been getting proven that awards have no meaning in India considering they being chosen and given just for its sake, the next awardees will be dhoni and his pets jadeja, rohit, raina
