Bharat Ratna - The Truth

We all may see Bharat Ratna award as the highest civilian honour in India. However, I'd like to make some interesting observations about this award which will certainly prompt you to doubt the credibility and sanctity of it.

Here are the facts.

  • Jawaharlal Nehru got it in 1955 when he was serving as the Prime Minister.
  • Indira Gandhi got it in 1971 when she was serving as the Prime Minister.
  • Rajiv Gandhi got it in 1991 soon after his death.

Now, here are the questions.

  • While Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel passed away in 1950, why did the government take 41 years to award him Bharat Ratna in 1991 along with Rajiv Gandhi?
  • While Subhash Chandra Bose was awarded Bharat  Ratna in 1992, it was withdrawn due to an ambiguity whether he's dead or alive.  So, the clause "posthumously" couldn't be determined in his case. Even till date he hasn't been awarded Bharat Ratna.
  • Dr. B R Ambedkar, a person who doesn't belong to Gandhi/Nehru dynasty got Bharat Ratna in 1990. why so?
  • Khan Abdul Gaffar Khan, a Pakistani national and a close friend of M K Gandhi, got Bharat Ratna in 1987, even before Sardar Patel.  How fair is this?

The above facts clearly force us to arrive at a conclusion that Bharat Ratna is an award of the Gandhi family and their sycophants. Your comments welcome on this.

    2. It is not that his family did not accept, the reality is something else.. dont become sycophants of Modi and study the real facts.... Bharat Ratna is not first come first serve deal... is it ?? Had it been dynasty award then why did 6-7 people get this award before Nehru... or Why MK Gandhi himself did not get this at all...??

    3. MK Gandhi was not awarded Bharat Ratna as the rule of posthumously awarding was not at that time.

  2. Don be surprised if Rahul gets Bharat Ratna...even before he is a PM.Its not only the leaders who have to change Mr.Rohit , it's also the thinking of People which has to change..unless people stop thinking and keep worrying about the superficial sacrifices of The Great Nehru Family(Dude please don call it a Gandhi Dynasty) i see no change in all these things.

  4. Get rid of Bharat Ratna. It has no meaning other than bribes to those who are not interested in money. If we want reform of this system we have to get this socialist entitlement schemes canceled.

  5. Well, I agree that it was given to Gandhi family but we shouldn't forget the remaining people who already achieved it by serving the nation with their best efforts all through their lives'. For the sake of one family, we can't entirely take away one of our best honorary awards which belongs to the people of whole nation. Coming to the point of credibility of Rajiv Gandhi, I really doubt and to me he was never an example of a true leader but the remaining two persons are OK atleast. As a matter of fact, I hate that Saif Ali Khan received a Padma shri, it can't be worse than this. As far as his acting skills are concerned they were far below than a normal actor and as a human being, he did nothing to the society though he is earning lots and I doubt if he atleast pays his taxes correctly or not. These people were just bad decisions..that's it!

    I know that the government of India is a slave of Congress party so we should accept the fact and move on !

  6. I stand second 2 propose Madam Maino 2 receive
    Bharat Ratna. I like the idea. After all she's playing
    Mother India Part III. Rahul for sure is in the Q
    Already, for all the farse he's been doing.
    Madam will b nominated by Puppets like the President,
    PM,CM's, she will dedicate it to the nation,
    N then MP's like Govinda from B'wood will
    Sing with tears Hey Maa ..... Tuzhe Salam...
    History will be rewritten... N then MF Hussein
    Will paint an artistic view of Durga n Kaali
    Mata symbolizing Sonia..
