These are announced every year on the eve of Republic Day.

These awards are open to all, regardless of ethnicity, profession, position, or gender.

In a statement, it was recommended that coordinated efforts be undertaken to find exceptional people who are giving selflessly to society and whose greatness and accomplishments deserve recognition.
A nomination or recommendation must include all specific information stated in the format provided on the portal, as well as a citation in narrative form (maximum 800 words), which concisely outlines the nominee's illustrious and exceptional accomplishments and service in the nominee's field and discipline.
