SELECTION CRITERIA

The Selection Committee of the Bharat Gaurav Award Foundation is composed of eminent personalities who have previously been honored as Bharat Gaurav awardees. Every two years, the committee selects an outstanding leader—one who has earned a Bharat Gaurav or Lifetime Achievement award in the past—and possesses an unblemished record of service, particularly in parliamentary work.

The Committee’s decisions are made strictly on merit and the impact of the work carried out by the nominee. Every selection is a thorough and impartial process, driven by integrity and expertise. The decision of the Committee is final and binding. Comprised of experts from diverse fields such as Education, Social Service, Sports, Journalism, and more, the members of the Selection Committee bring immense credibility and experience to the process. They are highly respected professionals who possess the discernment to identify deserving individuals without any bias or discrimination.

Annual Recommendation Proces

Each year, from April 1st to July 31st, recommendations are invited from State/UT governments, Members of Parliament, District Collectors, Superintendents of Police, and various other credible bodies and organizations. These recommendations, along with those received from other sources, are carefully reviewed by the Bharat Gaurav Award Committee.

Protocols and Standards

The Bharat Gaurav Award Foundation operates at the pinnacle of prestige, and to maintain this legacy, rigorous standards and protocols have been set to regulate its functions. These measures are in place to ensure that the awards are conferred with the utmost dignity and that every aspect of the event is executed flawlessly.

In August 2020, the Bharat Gaurav Standard Control Council (BGSCC) formally established the ‘Bharat Gaurav First Charter of Recognitions and Awards’. This charter outlines the objectives, selection criteria, and award categories for the Bharat Gaurav Awards, ensuring that the recognition process is transparent, fair, and consistent year after year.

Additionally, the charter sets comprehensive standards for event management, dignitary handling, stage protocols, and etiquette, ensuring that every detail is executed at the highest level. These established protocols are essential to maintain the prestige and aura associated with the Bharat Gaurav Award, reinforcing its stature as one of the most esteemed honors in the nation.
