The entire nation is in a joyous mood as the Central government announced to confer the legend of cricket SachinTendulkar with the country’s highest civilian honour ‘Bharat Ratna’ on his farewell day.

It is quite natural that the Government of India has announced the Bharat Ratna for you in recognition of your unmatched records."
