Padma and Ratna ... Are they loosing the face value ?
Well ...Well ... Well ... This is not about two Girls Padma and Ratna. This is about the awards govt of India gives to people excelled in their fields. Off late these awards became politically influenced. These awards became a tool to make people happy, whom they like.
The standards of the awards definitely came down by giving it to people involved in scams and without proper background check. There are some folks who got all the three padma awards (Padma Shree, Padma Bhusan, Padma Vibhushan). Our beloved Bachan family got 3 Padmas (Amitabh, Jaya, Aishwarya) in their home, Only missing is Abhishek. I am sure he will also get it soon.
During one of the years 90% of the Padma awards were given to the states of ruling party. In one occasion they gave Padma award to Kashmir blankets business person under category of Arts. We all know the case of NRI scam involved guy getting a padma award. They are categorizing basing on state, caste and political reasons. It was supposed to categorized basing on Art, Science, Social service.
On the other hand status of Bharat Ratna was really increased when it was given to Abdul Kalam and Mother theresa. I don't know why they gave it to MGR and Rajiv Gandhi. Don't use Nation's highest award for political reasons. The award committee should be independent board like election commission. They should reserve the right to take decision without any political approvals. Involve Judges, IAS and IPS of different fields in the awards committee.
Save the respect of the awards ...
