Honour and exception: On the Bharat Ratna and its recipients<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The choice of past leaders for Bharat Ratnas is in tune with politics of the present <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Bharat Ratna, the highest civilian honour of the country, has been conferred (to talk together and exchange ideas, often with the intention of reaching a decision about something) <\/strong>on 50 people since 1954. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader L.K. Advani and the late socialist leader, Karpoori Thakur, are the newest recipients (a person who receives something)<\/strong>. The making of national heroes is equally about the recipients as it is about its function as a stimulant (something that makes or causes something else to grow or develop) <\/strong>of a collective consciousness (the state of understanding and realizing something)<\/strong>. It is often the collective that needs heroes to hold itself together. By placing leaders on a higher pedestal, the group seeks to reinforce (to make something stronger) <\/strong>ideals represented by them. Mr. Advani has been a defining figure of modern Indian history. As he reminisced (to talk or write about past experiences that you remember with pleasure)<\/strong>, he joined the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh at the age of 14. His role in the advancement <\/strong>of the Hindutva ideology (a theory or set of beliefs, esp. one on which a political system, party, or organization is based) <\/strong>has been the biggest by any single leader before Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He has been a mentor to Mr. Modi, with his campaign for a temple in Ayodhya definitively changing the course of Indian politics. The campaign pushed the limits of constitutional order, based on the claim that matters of faith cannot be subject to litigation (the process of taking an argument between people or groups to a court of law)<\/strong>. As it happens with an extraordinary assertion of popular sovereignty (the power of a country to control its own government)<\/strong>, the Ram Janmabhoomi movement changed the country at several levels; the Supreme Court of India, by 2019, unanimously (in a way that is agreed or supported by everyone in a group) <\/strong>ruled in favour of the temple that was inaugurated (to put someone into an official position with a ceremony) <\/strong>by Mr. Modi on January 22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thakur was a central figure in the social justice politics \u2014 a euphemism (a word or phrase used to avoid saying an unpleasant or offensive word) <\/strong>for the demand for better representation of intermediate castes \u2014 of Bihar and the larger Hindi belt, who challenged the Congress\u2019s hegemony. He served two terms as the Chief Minister of Bihar in the 1970s. Social justice politics went through phases of self discovery, and scattered (covering a wide area) <\/strong>into numerous parties over the years. One strand is closely aligned with the BJP. There are social justice groups that are still opposed to it, but the BJP owes its current strength considerably to intermediate castes. That ongoing process is being reinforced (If something reinforces an idea or opinion, it provides more proof or support for it and makes it seem true) <\/strong>by honouring Thakur. In 2015, A.B. Vajpayee, the first Prime Minister from the BJP, and Madan Mohan Malaviya, the founder of the Banaras Hindu University, were conferred the Bharat Ratna. In 2019, Pranab Mukherjee, Bhupendra Kumar Hazarika, and Nanaji Deshmukh were recipients. All these selections are in tune with the politics of the present \u2014 and how the history of the Bharat Ratna has always been. All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam founder M.G. Ramachandran and B.R. Ambedkar were also conferred the award in the hope that their followers would, in turn, back the party or alliance (an agreement to work with someone else to try to achieve the same thing) <\/strong>ruling at the Centre. Mr. Advani and Thakur represent the two legs of BJP politics, namely Hindu consolidation (the process of becoming or being made stronger and more certain) <\/strong>and higher representation (a person or organization that speaks, acts, or is present officially for someone else) <\/strong>for intermediate castes in all fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
