As per the circular, efforts might be made to identify talented persons from amongst the weaker sections of the society, like Schedule Castes and Schedule Tribes, handicapped persons, women etc. who deserve to be decorated with the award. If any government employee or officer is recommended for the awards, his recommendation along with his personal file should be sent through the concerned head of the department or Administrative Secretary.
The circular also states that in addition to the bio-data of the person recommended for the award, a citation in narrative form has to be forwarded in both Hindi and English languages clearly bringing out the achievements and contribution of the person in their respective fields of activity.
The decoration is normally not conferred posthumously. However, in highly deserving cases, government could consider giving an award posthumously if the person proposed to be honored has died recently, say within a period of one year preceding the Republic Day on which it is proposed to announce the award.
