Guwahati, January 14: Close on the heels of BJP and BSP demanding Bharat Ratna for former prime minister A B Vajpayee and Kanshi Ram respectively, Assam unit of the Samajwadi Party on Monday said the country's highest civilian award should be confered on party leader Mulayam Singh Yadav.

SP state unit general secretary Ratul Kumar Choudhury in a letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh urged him to confer the award on Yadav.

"He is the only secular leader of our country who has worked with Mahatma Gandhi, Jai Prakash Narain and Ram Manohar Lohia and he is the only leader who can save the nation and its people in the coming years," he said.

Bharat Ratna by Meghana Mulye on 17 Jan 2008

The value of Bharat Ratna has been completely devalued by giving them to politicians. It should be awarded to some one who actually makes a difference to the country.

GOD SAVE INDIA by rajababu on 15 Jan 2008

NO BHARAT RATAN FOR POLITICIANS. by A.K.SHARMA on 15 Jan 2008

The dirty politicians have made the mockery of the highest national award.If the grace and dignity of the higheest national award is to be saved then no politician should ever be considered for this award.As a matter of fact,if possible,the awards already conferred on the politicians in the past,should also be cancelled.The most heinous mockery of the award was when it was conferred on Nelson Mandela.Even Ambedkar,who was a stooge of the Britishers(refer 'WORSHIPPING THE FALSE GODS' by Arun Shourie)never desereved this award.And may be list is quite long for undeserving awardees.So let us resolve that no politician would ever be considered for this award.This award should be given only to the people,who actually do something for the nation like 'Missile-man'APJ Kalam,'Metro-man' Shreedharan and others like them.Yes,if ever an exception is to be made in case of politicians,then Narender Modi could be the exception.

Most deserving candidate for Bharat Ratna by Anil Singh on 15 Jan 2008

In my opinion if anyone deserves the Bharat Ratna it is the Chief Exuctive of DMRC for his exemplary service, professional management of the Delhi Metro. A job being accomplished without concern for personal Glory. Keep it up sir. We arre proud of you.

Give BR for all MPs, MLAs and CMs. by Ajay Date on 15 Jan 2008

Let's come up with two awards: 1.Bharat Ratna (Ati Mahan) awards: Give it to all MPs and CMs.2. Bharat Ratna (Ati Mahan -Prayatna) awards: Give to all who contested MP, MLA elections and lost. These awards can be given by the election commission immediately. This will stop wasting public time and save the rest of the country watching these scavengers scramble for BR.

Long Live AMMA .JJ .of TamilNadu by sacsiv on 15 Jan 2008

After seeing all these Goondas names recommended for BR, I have to nominate our AMMA, JJ, the biggest Gundi (female version of Goonda in Tamil) for this coveted award? Else she will castrate us, her, devotees and henchmaen. Long Live our big Gundi...Amma, thaye, JJ...

Bharat-Ratna by Avinash Singh on 15 Jan 2008

Every Indian considers himself a "Ratan" in his own way. Why don't we consider producing a variety of medals which can be bought for a price befitting ones self importance.It will be a roaring business generated by people looking for prsetige and importance !

Bharat Ratna for Mulayam by megh on 15 Jan 2008

Every tom, dick and harry wants a Bhrata Ratna; why not just put it up for sale and let the crookes like Mulayam Singh Yadav and others buy it off. If MSY deserves a BR then i think Phoolan Devi too can be given; she made a dramatic turnaround froma monstrous dacoit to a politician, though both are in the same class.

Who is he? by sivsac on 15 Jan 2008

Who is this Sri Sri Sri Sri RaviRaviRavi Sankar; is he related to our Sithar Ravi Shankar

BR for everyone; by Bullshit Rana on 15 Jan 2008

Bharat Ratna by Arjun on 15 Jan 2008

If Mulayam should be given Bharat Ratna then EVERY DOG on India's street should be given one too. Shame on Amar Singh and his gang to even dream of such a thing.

BR for Sonia Maino-Gandhi by Satya on 15 Jan 2008

Antonia Maino alias Sonia Maino-Gandhi has done lot for our country, she sacrificed PM position. She has submitted affidavit to SC denigrating Sri Ram, making Ramayan a fiction. She has promoted christian missionaries, and decorated PadmaSri award to Ausralian missioanry terrorist last year. Maino has promised to Vatican by the next 10 years, she will totally christianise India and declare India as christian nation. Awake Hindus, don't keep sleeping. Our nation and dharma is in danger from Italian Congress.

Bharat Ratna for Mulayam Singh Yadav; Joke of the year 2008 by Mrs Chaarulata on 15 Jan 2008

Bharat Ratna for ISI agent, killers of thousands of hindu karsevaks, hardcore corrupt and notorious goon. Bharat Ratna for Mulayam Singh Yadav is the Joke of the year 2008.

Why not Dawood and Amar Singh by Jay on 15 Jan 2008

Let's give Bharat Ratna to Dawood Ibrahim and Amar Singh too. Govt of India can auction all the ratnas. It will gove money for developmental works. In any case, all such national awards have NO credibility since last 4 decades or more.

Bharat Ratan for me by Rizvi on 15 Jan 2008

I support you fully, I would recommend your name and please recommend my name, I am also interested in this award

Start doing what I wrote by Rahul on 15 Jan 2008

dip sikha, you don't qualify as you said you did no harm to the country. You have to be criminal, corrupt, mass-murderer, chor, goonda, terrorists, hindu-hater, muslim-christian appeaser, christian missionary supporter, ISI supporter, and so on. Then only you qualify. First start doing this, then write here again. Then we will support you.

bharat ratna for criminals by arjun on 15 Jan 2008

That's right ONLY Gangsters, criminals, convicts like Sunjay Dutt, Amitabh, Mulayam, Amar Singh deserve this award as they have cheated Nation at every step. Shame on these DOGS

BR for Mulayam by Hemant on 14 Jan 2008

I agree, Mulayam and Amar Singh should be given BR and then asked to quit politics. This will be very small price to pay. May be others in politics should be given BR and made to retire from politics. I will vote for Lalu and Rabri devi.Hemant.

Howabout Amma by siva on 14 Jan 2008

How about our outstanding scholar, AMMA JJ, the Gundi (female name for Goonda) of TAmil Nadu for her scholarly work ( though she studied only upto 10 th grade).

BR for the real Ratnas of Bharat by Bharat on 14 Jan 2008

BJP, by proposing Shri Vajpayee's name, did a wonderful job. Else, Congress under Italian Sonia would have given BR to some christian missionaries, Quotrochi, Afzal Guru, Sohrabuddin, Sanjay Dutt, Sonia Maino-Gandhi or Sonia's childrens or her family in Italy. Congress saying- people should not publicly proposed for it, is simply a covert game. Congress played this game last 50 years, decorated BR to their family members and friends (some of them are most undersering). That monopoly must go, BR must come under national public debate and public must decide who is real Bharat Ratna. A person with incredible personal integrity, honesty, done real work for the nation are deserved to be BR. We can see some names true ratnas of our nation like Mata Amritanandamayi (Amma), Sri Sri Ravi Sankar, Swami Ramdev, Shri Ratan Tata and Shri Vajapee.
