Normally only one
award of Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna is
given every year to an individual sportsperson. However, the Scheme provides
that this condition can be relaxed in exceptional circumstances viz., winning
of an Olympic medal. Like wise for the Arjuna Awards, normally not more than 15
awards are to be given in any calendar year.
However, the Scheme of Arjuna Awards also provides that keeping in view
the performance of Indian sportspersons in the Commonwealth, Asian Games and
Olympic Games during a particular year, Arjuna Awards exceeding 15 in number
may be allowed with proper justification and approval of the Minister for Youth
Affairs & Sports. The Selection
Committee noted that 2012 is the Olympic year and India has won 6 medals in the
London Olympics, which is country’s best performance in Olympic Games, and
recommended that the condition of one award in case of Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna
and 15 awards in case of Arjuna Awards may be relaxed and the number of Rajiv
Gandhi Khel Ratna Award may be increased from 1 (one) to 2 (two) and Arjun
Awards may be increased from 15 (fifteen) to 25 (twenty five).
National Sports Awards are given every year to recognize
and reward excellence in sports. Rajiv
Gandhi Khel Ratna Award is given for spectacular performance in the year under
consideration; Arjuna Award is given for consistently outstanding performance
for three consecutive years preceding the year of award.
Apart from a medal and a citation, Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna
Awardees will receive a cash prize of Rs.7.5 lakh each and Arjuna Awardees will
receive statuettes, citations and cash prize of Rs.5 lakh each.
DRONACHARYA AWARD 2012
an award presented by the government of India for
excellence in sports coaching.
