BHARAT RATNA losing its value for vote bank!!!

                                 
The bharat ratna is our highest civilian award.It was reward for exceptional service towards advancement of art,literature and science,and in recognition of public service of the highest order.Now it may be “awarded in recognition of exceptional service/performance of the highest order in any field of human endeavour.”Performance”,the word added specifically to bring in Tendulkar,is not same as service.The critical words “towards advancement of” have been dropped.Salman khan,amir khan,shahrukh khan,amitabh bachan performs exceptionally in their field.Does that qualify them to be a bharat ratna?According to new rules,it does.Late Major Dhyan chand is acknowledged as all time greatest player of hockey all over the world.He won three successive Olympic gold medals for india,his play strongly attracted even hilter who requested him to play for germany and in return was the same status as hitler enjoys in Germany.Indian in general and hockey in particular didn’t have enough infrastructure and Major sahab could have easily graped the opportunity but alas he was not an opportunist player like sachin.Viswanathan anands achievements are greater than sachin’s.Anand changed the face of the game in india through his exploits in a career spanning three decades.He is a scholar in chess and he revolutionised chess in india.We not only had icons in cricket like gavaskar and kapil dev but also great achievement ,the 1983 world cup before sachin,but what did we have in chess before Anand?A huge wall that separated soviet masters from the other players.Anand rewrote chess in capital letters and no other Indian sportperson except Dhyan chand can match his contribution.Chess is played in almost all countries and completion is tougher,and without any infrastructure and support,he became the world champion five times. The comment by Mr moily that country felt strongly for sachin is absoulety non-sense.If You people bend towards the country’s opinion why not to Atalji,why no lokpal till now???The feeling for sachin is created by media,BCCI and congress party,its on pappu’s recommendation(eyeing to election) and not public opinion ,sachin is given BR.No doubt sachin is god of cricket in india,but PMO could have waited for some time to see what and how sachin would use his expertise and experience and offcouse his money for the betterment of other sports atleast if not for the betterment of society which actually qualifies him to be a Ratna.Still its not questioning the personalities,its all about questioning the priorities.So many in the past have so so so much,and they deserved natural acolades and recognition.The priorities needs to be set.Sure no political party will do it.
SitCom:The manner in which JLN nd IG honoured themselves with BR,im sure SG would be a Sure sort BR!!!
