What Neerja did was really worth Ashok chakra, also she did not deserved death. But that does'nt mean that what the pilots did was wrong. it is a very very wrong statement. Pilots are taught to tackle the hijackers verbally and when the plane is in air.They cannot fight and win with the hijackers. So the best way to keep the plane GROUNDED is to escape from the plane. If there is no pilot in the plane how they will fly off? So what the pilots did was also sensible but was very much over shadowed by the bravery of Neerja and every one started thinking that they just ran away from the situation.
Ms.Neeraja is brave and she given her life to save people. But, giving the Ms.Neeraja Award to Women's Organisations and individual women for domestic violence is not fare. Because Ms.Neeraja Award Committee / Jury must do proper evaluation and identify the women who really did the brave work and saved life of innocent people. Not necessary that every year must give awards...! When Ms.Neeraja Award Committee finds brave and does suitable to Neeraja's brave and for them then this award is deserved. Not that the women who dealt with Domestic Violence with her life and give this award to that kind of women. At least now onwards identify the women who does brave work and saves peoples life. "Mark this Award" Only for Brave Women.

Agree with you fully on the point you raised .Especially this award should only be for brave women/ladies. Salutations to the noble soul.
