Hindustan Times
|January 26, 2024
Former vice-president Venkaiah Naidu, Telugu superstar Chiranjeevi, yesteryear stalwart Vyjayanthimala, Sulabh founder Bindheshwar Pathak, and Bharatnatyam exponent Padma Subrahmanyam are the five people awarded the Padma Vibhushan, India's second-highest civilian honour, the government announced on Thursday.
For 2024, the President approved 132 Padma awards, including 17 Padma Bhushan honours, and 110 Padma Shri awards. Thirty of the awardees are women and the list also includes eight people who are foreigners, non-resident Indians, people of Indian origin or those who hold overseas citizenship of India.
 
Four of the five Padma Vibhushan laureates hailed from south India. Nine awardees were posthumously honoured -- including Tamil actor-turned-politician Vijaykanth and India's first woman Supreme Court judge, M Fathima Beevi who were both awarded the Padma Bhushan.
