India National Awards Criterion: Personal integrity and  selfless service to nation 

-DR. ABDUL RUFF

If awards are given to people only to motivate them to get more awards, then, entire  exercise is a misconceived notion and if the theme is focus  on new comers to learn form  the awardees, that is just n another mischief played on the notion.

In India a major contemporary terrocracy promoting fanatic elements at national and regional levels, awards are given as a routine  habit to appease a few individuals and  their  agencies.

Awards of national  importance are akin to the so-called honorary doctorates bestowed and shared among big guys on exchange program. Character of the personality and  the  patriotic contribution - not on payment basis- the award seekers posses are important to consider because these  guys after the awards are supposed to be model citizens to influence others positively. Being  "better than  others" not criterion to select persons for  Republic day awards.  The  positive contribution  towards society and people  though hard work cannot be sidelined  while  discussing the names.

For instance, government and sports ministry spends huge resources on sport persons and create wide international network to pursue sport achievements and sport fixings. hen the winners are paid huge sums and awards- why? Whom does India try to impress by these award gimmicks? 

Year after year Indian regime by some familiar process of elimination  very religiously pick up some favorites for national awards of varying levels and categories ostensibly for their "contribution" to their respective fields, ignoring  the vital aspect of personal integrity or the nature of selfless service to nation in a sustained manner.  This practice is akin to regular polls conducted to claim legitimacy  for the misgovernance and crimes.

In every filed, Indian government has instituted  awards at the national level for promoting award seekers and the special national awards  also including all these institutions  for distributing awards as a ritual. In fact, the general practice is to consider all awards "managed" by  the aspirant candidates in their respective institution for the special national awards.

Obviously, this is futile,  futile and bogus exercise, generating a wide network of mafias to canvas for their candidates for the presidential awards. . 

Question is: how many of those who have been awarded the national Republic day prizes are worth the call and real stuff of national pride? 

People make wealth in all possible  ways and  almost buy awards in India. Many award winners have become exposed as rogues later.

Pharatratna should the ultimate goal any constructive creator who serves the nation  selflessly. Such people  are not there in India.

Indian mafias have been pestering the regime to  post of Pharatratna cricketer S. Tendulakar who has amassed runs  on  immoral means, including "give and take" and "exchange of 100 plus" between the  select batboys  form each team according to some  fake formula.  Now a days,  the bowlers refuse to let him make merry at the crease and remove him very early with a few runs.  

This year the  Indian ministry of sports announced that they have for the first time in years abandoned Sachuin Tendulkar, considered by many including in the  sports and other ministries as a major Hindu god with large networks of "devotees", worshipers, supporters, mafias , advertisers, etc,  from their recommendation list for the prestigious  award of Pharatratna- a move that has shocked the major media outlets and lords.

If the best model citizens are not available,  do not award the favorites the prizes  and just wait for the time.

Better do away with such national awards  of select people, when really committed people are ignored, if available, by the  selectors and others.   

The issue of national awards is as grievous as the occupation of alien Jammu Kashmir plus the ongoing brutalitiess perpetuated by the paid state terrorists and their agents there.

Many people work for the success of one individual in almost every field and that person loots all money, fame and awards. Take any field, hundreds of people labor while one person takes the entire credit.  When a team works how can nation offer prestigious  awards to select guys? Is it  the right way of national behavior towards citizens? 

Should entertainments like cricket where "fixing" and collective operations are in vogue, be treated as prestige of a nation? , 

Meanwhile, Sachuin should surrender the awards he has managed so far to the  government.

Alternatively, the state can also scrap ll this meaningless awards confiscate the all awards. After all both central and regional governments have instituted  awards for "talents".

For national awards as republic day gifts every regional state, various institutions among other recommend people of of their choice to the central government for awarding "prizes" and they all do  this exercise secretly without letting the people know about it even after the states send the list of award seekers.

If the state and central governments keep the  possible  persons being considered for the awards of all categories, people would debate the issue and could approve or even add new names  perhaps better then the ones being groomed by the states, various ministries and central government itself. 

Indian intelligence teams should ascertain worth of people whose lucky names being  finalized for various awards are genuine and they do deserve the coveted prize over others.

Any process that does not  involve people's participation is illegal and immoral. Considering the people only as  bank banks and denying  their participation in suggesting  names is also immoral.

An observation

Secrecy is eating  away the bone of democracy in all terrocracies, including India, USA, UK and Israel. 

It is high time policy of transparency is adopted as a state policy to inform the public about all  policies of the government. After all other nations know every thing about Indian secrets and  policy of secrecy, but Indians are denied that privilege. Their job is only to vote standing n long queses? 

In place of oath of office and secrecy, the rulers must take oath on transparency so that people can partake in state endeavors. .

India must announce the probables for national awards in advance so as to generate useful debate.  State governments also must intiate discussion on their selections.
