National Bravery Award

The National Bravery Awards consist of five categories[2] On Gandhi Jayanti day, 2 October 1957, India's first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, was watching a performance in Delhi's Ramlila ground, at the Red Fort.

Harish Chandra Mehra, a 14-year-old scout, promptly took out his knife and ripped open the burning tent, saving the lives of hundreds of trapped people.

This incident inspired Nehru to ask the authorities to establish an award to honour brave children from all over the country.

These applications come from official agencies such as local and district governments, school authorities, and councils for child welfare.

This committee consists of representatives from leading government and non-government organizations, such as the secretariats of the president and the vice-president, the Central Social Welfare Board, the Indian Police, All India Radio, Doordarshan, the National Bal Bhavan, SOS Children's Villages of India.
