Several individuals known for their quiet service to society have been honoured with the Padma Shri under the ‘Unsung Heroes’ category this year. Bhagwadas Raikwar from Madhya Pradesh and Brij Lal Bhat from Jammu and Kashmir are among the awardees, sources told PTI.
Continuing the principle of celebrating Ordinary Indians making Extraordinary Contributions, this year’s Padma Awards recognise a wide spectrum of unsung heroes from across the length and breadth of India. Each awardee represents quiet, steadfast service that often goes unnoticed, yet makes a lasting difference.
