Will Sachin Tendulkar Award for Bharat Ratna ? as he is one of the greatest batsmen in the history of cricket. Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar is the leading run-scorer and century maker in Test and one-day international cricket. According to some reports, Sachin is almost certain to be honoured with India’s highest civilian award – the Bharat Ratna as there are number of records list as Legend Sachin Tendulkar passed 30,000 runs in international cricket on 20 November 2009, and has been honoured with the Padma Vibhushan award, India’s second highest civilian award, and the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna award, India’s highest sporting honor. Tendulkar became the first sportsperson and the first personality without an aviation background to be awarded the honorary rank of Group Captain by the Indian Air Force. He won the 2010 Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy for cricketer of the year at the ICC awards.

If Sachin Tendulkar wins, like his numerous other achievements, would be another first as no other sportsperson has ever won the Bharat Ratna.

Sachin’s name for the honour has been recommended by a number of politicians, which makes the possibility of his winning stronger than ever before this time around.

Talking to reporters a few days ago, Member of Parliament Sanjay Nirupam had said, “We have strongly recommended Sachin’s name for the Bharat Ratna, and we should know the result in a few days.”

The demand to decorate the batting maestro with the Bharat Ratna was first made way back in the year 2003 by the Shiv Sena and seconded by the then Human Resource Development (HRD) minister Murli Manohar Joshi.

The champion batsman held the press conference to inform that a CD of the poems written by his late father, Ramesh Tendulkar, and a book of poems written by his brother Nitin, will be launched later this week.

Asked whether he was thinking of writing an autobiography, Tendulkar said, “Never thought about it.

Never had time to think about it….maybe someday, if I feel like.”

To a query, Tendulkar, who is reportedly a favourite to get the Bharat Ratna this year, said winning India’s highest civilian honour is a dream of every countryman.

“Every Indian would like to be honoured by the country. It is the biggest dream when your contribution is appreciated,” he added.
