Controversies
Award to Subhas Chandra Bose
Indian freedom fighter Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose was awarded Bharat Ratna posthumously in 1992.
The award was later withdrawn due to a legal technicality. This is the only case of an award being
withdrawn. It was withdrawn in response to a Supreme Court of India directive following a Public Interest
Litigation filed in the Court against the posthumous nature of the award. The Award Committee could not
give conclusive evidence of Bose’s death and thus it invalidated the posthumous award.
Award to Abul Kalam Azad
When the award was offered to freedom fighter and India's first Minister of Education, Abul Kalam Azad,
he promptly declined it saying that it should not be given to those who have been on the selection
committee. Later he was awarded posthumously in 1992.
Nobody was given country’s highest civilian award – Bharat Ratna during the year

Nath Bose, Nand Lal Bose, Zakir Hussain, Balasaheb Gangadhar Kher, Jigme Dorji Wangchuk, V. K.

category.The Government has recently revised the scheme for the Arjun Award. As per the revised
guidelines, to be eligible for the Award, a sportsperson should not only have had good performance
