					<description>26 Jan gone
Bharat ratna undecided
Is it the time for us to console ourselves
probably yes and probably no
Yes - because had the award been given to Rafi sahab, we would have been the happiest people of the world
no - because;-
we are the Rafi fans,Mohammed rafi, the great singer,who represents happiness and thankfulness,thankful for everything that god and his people(of god) gave him,he was extremely thankful,happy,  and satisfied about the love and appreciation that this country gave him, he was absolutely proud of the greatness of this country and its people let us learn from him the art of "not complaining" and be proud of our fortune that we have lived in the era of Rafi sahab and we have also been able to give our  immortal love and appreciation to the great singer.</description>

					<description>Now that the Government has finally left the Bharat Ratna undecided for the seventh year in a row, we must focus our energies to achieve the same for Rafi Sahab atleast next year. The need of the hour is not to lose precious time but the campaign must go on. All the time tested avenues must be explored afresh and the Government must be made ‘aware’ of the stark reality of the greatness of this one single individual who deserves this coveted award more than anyone else. The Rafi Foundation should put its act together and all those who can work for this most noble cause, need to keep the campaign as their cherished aim. Efforts made in right earnest will yield positive results although it may seem to take some time.</description>

					<description>as I said and say it again the Bharat Ratna award is for human and Mohd rafi is angel.Thanks to Gov't  because they know that this award is so small for Mohd rafi a man from 1950's on the top still at the top and will be at the top that is a award of God to Mohd rafi as I think</description>

					<description>Dear Binuji.

I can note the visible dissapiontment in you words.i too am dissapointed.

Perhaps it is the will of GOD that the voice of GOD should go un-noticed.We should not be let down and carry on the work which you and all respecte people have been doing. COME ON BINUJI DO NOT BUCK DOWN.YOU AND ALL OF US KNOW THAT YOU HAVE TRIED YOUR BEST AND IT IS ENOUGH FOR US AND RAFISAAB UP ABOVE IN THE SKY.

A time will come when justice will be done and ordinary singers like asha,sonu nigam, and kk and others will not be given the adulation they do not deserve.

SO LET US ALL NOT BE DISSAPPOINTED SINCE MANY OTHER DESERVING PEOPLE HAVE ALSO BEEN NOT GIVEN THEIR DUE.Yesterday I was watching the movie BHAGAT SINGH AND I was moved by the scene when he intereacts with his mother before hanging.He became a martyr at a tender age of 23.Still today govt does not give him his due recognition.

SO IN LIFE SUCH THINGS HAVE HAPPENED AND WILL HAPPEN IN FUTURE.

Rafi Saab is the best there was the best there will be.

so binuji and all our rafi saab family do be dissappointed.</description>

					<description>gOVT OF iNDIA HAVE GIVEN bHARAT RATNA A MISS THIS YEAR AGAIN. I DO NOT KNOW THE NOMINATIONS FOR PREVIOUS YEARS, BUT THIS YEAR THERE WERE SOME TOTALLY BIASED AND UNJUST NOMINATIONS - AS A RESULT goi PROBABLY DECIDED TO LET THE DUST SETTLE.
MY GUT FEELING TELLS ME THAT SINCE RAFI SAHEB HAVE NOT BEEN GIVEN PADMA VIBHUSHA, HE IS DEFINATELY IN THE CONTENTION FOR BHARAT RATNA NEXT YEAR.

WE NEED TO THANK MR PASWAN FOR NOMINATING HIS NAME. INCIDENTLY, TO ME OF THE THREE NAMES MR PHULE, BABBO JAGJIVAN RAM AND MR RAFI SAHEB, I FEEL MR PHULE AND RAFI SAHEB ARE THE MOST WORTHY NOMINATION IN THE ENTIRE LIST.</description>

					<description>post 57 : naveen zalpuri:

yes. this time the bharat ratna is given a miss. we tried and
not succeeded this time around. 

asha has got the p.v. and she will try to come near her sis for
the b.r. 
they happen to be great "lobby-ists". however, we have learnt
"few" lessons and we will make a strong representation again.
meanwhile, rafi lovers "must" write to the government about
honouring mohd. rafi saab, i feel.

					<description>At this point looks like Govt may have given Bharat Ratna a miss .Padma Awards are  already out. Still let's hope and pray that Binuji's sixth sense wish turns out to be true .On a related note Ashaji got PV this year. In a few years she may be on her way to catch with didi

					<description>a sixth sense tells me that rafi saheb will be given the 
coveted bharat ratna award - soonest and it could be
this year only.

else , we appeal to the govt. very strongly and also honour
rafi saab the Vishva Ratna award - in the field of art and culture.
