Priority will be given to unsung contributors who haven’t received state-level honours.
Applicants or nominees must demonstrate impactful service within Tamil Nadu for a minimum of 10 years. NGOs, institutions, and individuals can apply or be nominated by senior officials, Padma awardees, Vice-Chancellors, or Collectors.
