NEW DELHI:
Giving out the awards to seven boys and 10 girls selected from 14 states and Union territories, the President also underlined the importance of nurturing and celebrating young talents.
"Providing opportunities and recognizing children's talents has always been a part of our tradition. This tradition should be further strengthened to ensure that every child realizes their full potential," she said.
The award celebrates extraordinary accomplishments in seven categories: art and culture, bravery, innovation, science and technology, social service, sports and environment.
The honourees were presented with a medal, certificate and citation booklet at the ceremony which was held on Veer Bal Diwas instead of a conferring ceremony during Republic Day celebrations in January as the government wanted a ceremony dedicated to the children.
President Murmu highlighted the importance of honouring such talents, saying, "The tradition of recognising and nurturing children's potential has always been part of our culture. Their contributions will lead India to the pinnacle of progress."
