Purpose Behind Conferring the ‘Hindu Rashtra Ratna’ and ‘Sanatan Dharmashri’ Awards

Explaining the objective behind these awards, Mr. Chetan Rajhans, National Spokesperson of Sanatan Sanstha, stated, “In the country, individuals working in various fields are honoured with prestigious awards like Padma Shri, Padma Bhushan, Padma Vibhushan, and Bharat Ratna. However, those who awaken and protect Hindu Dharma are not conferred any such awards. On the occasion of the 83rd birth anniversary of Sachchidananda Parabrahman (Dr) Athavale, it was decided to honour the heroes of Hindu Dharma with the ‘Hindu Rashtra Ratna’ and ‘Sanatan Dharmashri’ awards. Henceforth, such awards will be conferred every year on the occasion of His birth anniversary.”
