The Sports Ministry on 22nd January suggested names of two sports persons for India's third highest civilian honor, The Padambhushan. The two recommended sportsperson are Rahul Dravid and olympic medal winning wrestler Sushil Kumar. RD was awarded the Padmashri back in 2004, Only Sachin Tendulkar has a higher civilian honor if Dravid is awarded with the title.
We wish RD and Sushil Kumar the very best. :)
