"Privileged Pedigree Has Disappeared": Vice President's Dig At Opposition

In an apparent dig at the opposition and dynastic politics, Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar today said democratic values blossom when there is equality before the law and where there is no patronage, favouritism, or nepotism.

About The Awards

As India strides towards a Vikasit future, NDTV is excited to announce an evening of celebrations with our iconic Indian of the Year 2024 awards. The event, spotlighting the theme of “India – A Transformative Power".

 

Hon'ble Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar  joined us as Chief Guest, along with other esteemed guests including Union Ministers Hardeep Puri, Ashwini Vaishnaw and Smriti Zubin Irani. The event featured some of the biggest names from entertainment, politics, business, sports and culture.

 

Since the very first Indian of the Year was held in 2005, NDTV’s signature event has grown to become an important platform to honour individuals and organisations dedicated to the nation’s progress. The awards have consistently celebrated India’s heroes, famous or unsung, acknowledging their extraordinary contribution to the society.
