Bharat Ratna

Assistant Manager
Bharat Ratna is the highest civilian honour, given for exceptional service towards advancement of Art, Literature and Science, and in recognition of Public Service of the highest order. The provision of Bharat Ratna was introduced in 1954. The first ever Indian to receive this award was the famous scientist, Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman. Since then, many people, each a whiz in varied aspects of their career, have received this coveted award.

Dear friends below mentioned is the list of all bharat ratna winners but i dont think these all people were ellegible for this award. There are numerous names who did not deserve to get the Nations highest honor. All politicians have been honored - none from the arm forces or other fields.If politicians have done so well then how come the country is in such a state of affairs.

So, what do you think? Sachin tendulkar should get this award or not??
