X
There are several awards in our country but Padma awards have a special recognition among them. We can't compare these awards with any other awards. On the other hand, there is some criticism on the choice of the winners every time the awards are announced by the government. One of the major allegation on the Padma Awards is the persons who have strong political influence are getting the awards by lobbying for them and several eligible persons are not receiving Padma awards.

Padma awards can be nominated by Central Government.. State Governments.. Chief Ministers.. Governors.. MPs.. Central Ministers. The persons who are excelled in any of the fields like Arts.. Literature.. Education..Medicine.. Sports.. Social Service.. Engineering.. Public Affairs.. Trade.. Industry.. Science & Technology can be nominated for Padma Awards.

With the increasing criticism on Padma Awards because of the political influence, some eligible persons who are not in the limelight are not getting the awards. The Central government has taken a new decision to check the political influence in Padma Awards. According to the latest decision taken by the government, the common public can nominate anyone for Padma Awards. The government has come up with a special portal www.padmaawards.gov.in for these nominations.

Anyone can log on to this portal and nominate eligible persons for the Padma Awards. The Awards will be announced on the January 26, on the occasion of Republic Day.
