 On the auspicious day of the birth anniversary of Dr. S. Radhakrishnan, an eminent philosopher and the 2nd President of India, who dedicated his birthday to the great teachers of this country, I would like to put forward a proposal for those concerned high-ups to think that a prestigious national award given every year to an outstanding coach, preceptor or mentor in the field of sports is named after Dronacharya, the great Guru of Pandavas and Kauravas. In truth, Dronacharya symbolizes a crafty, bias, prejudiced guru who derides and abhors those belonging to the margin or brink while greatly favouring only those from the creamy layer of the mainstream. Given this unpalatable fact that entails the sage-guru Dronacharya, it would be better if the name of the Award be changed.
