Bharat Ratna for Sachin Tendulkar and Prof CNR Rao



All cricket god fans, here is the perfect climax for the story. The Indian Government has announced Bharat Ratna, the highest civilian award of India to batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar.  Just hours after he bids goodbye to cricket, it was decided that he would be awarded with this great honor. "I dedicate this award to my mother," said Mr Tendulkar, who had made special arrangements to ensure his mother, Rajni Tendulkar, watches his last Test match against West Indies at Mumbai's Wankhede stadium. With this, Tendulkar has become the first sportsperson to receive the biggest honour possible for any Indian.
Eminent scientist and a well recognized international authority on solid state and materials chemistry Prof. CNR Rao (Chintamani Nagesa Ramachandra Rao) also got this prestegious award along with sachin. He has published over 1,400 research papers and 45 books. He already has been honoured with several national and international awards.  He serves as the head of the Scientific Advisory Council to the Prime Minister of India.
