Sadhguru launches ‘Bhavya Bharat Bhushan’ award; Rajnath Singh felicitates achievers
Spiritual leader Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev on Sunday launched the 'Bhavya Bharat Bhushan Award' to recognise individuals for their contributions across national security, business, arts and entertainment, sports, community welfare, science and technology, and literature and academia.
The award was presented during the Mahashivaratri celebrations, where defence minister Rajnath Singh attended the event as chief guest and honoured recipients from various fields.
Among the awardees was noted violinist N Rajam, who said, “It is fantastic to get an award from Sadhguru ji. It is a big blessing and I have been connected with this ashram for many years. I have played in the Mahashivaratri festival for many years, I've played with my daughters and granddaughters.”
Former Isro chairman S Kiran Kumar said the recognition was for the organisation’s decades of work. “It's an award not given to me as an individual but I am a representative of an organization which over the last many decades has been serving to bring the space technology for the benefit of the country… I'm only a representative of this great organisation,” he told ANI.
According to the Isha Foundation website, the Bhavya Bharat Bhushan Award is a national honour celebrating individuals whose work has significantly contributed to the nation’s growth and well-being.
