Isn't this question like asking girls whether Shahrukh should continue doing films ?
Sachin lovers are gonna give a resounding YES.

Which retard girl would say Yes? LOL
And yes, there is always fear of fanboism and bias in every discussion, but that doesn't mean we cannot have a useful discussion in civil manner.
I haven't watched cricket in over five years now, but since he made the best bowlers in the world shit their pants just thinking of him, he deserves an award of some kind.
Bharat Ratna, not sure. How meaningful is the award? For example, how many people here remember the last five personalities who got it?

I do. And let me tell you that it is most prestigious award an Indian civilian would get.

Unless they agree to give the award to Dhyanchand first.
But this amendment in law has the potential to give rise to situations where the parties will start using it for political mileage. Apart from that, the amendment has set a precedent where people from other walks of life can and will be considered, and we all know how intelligent our think tank gen is.

What i found interesting is a private company person gets bharat ratna.Because according to BCCI it doesnt fall under RTI.So technically its a private company.

I thought you said this was supposed to be
1. Civil
2. Useful
Your post is neither. For one, you haven't answered the second part of the question.

Aha, thats an interesting way to look at it.
How it is not in civil manner? Care to explain? I will edit it. And in the OP itself I cited my reason, I don't see his contributions in any other place than sports.
Avi also one more point which i found interesting was on twitter.After that i dont give much damn about bharat ratna is this.

I think its irrelevant. Sachin for me always will be the guy who gave many wonderful memories to cherish in childhood and youth, not a Bharat Ratna Awardee.

That contribution is in a league of its own.
Going by the requirements to get a BR, it seems they have opened up the criteria.
You could ask the same question of artists as well isn't it or what was Nelson Mandela's contribution to india.
Take a look at the list of awardees, and the first artist gets it in '88. So at that point people must have asked the same question as well. In 2011 they decided to take it to its logical conclusion, any field in which a person excels at in a unique manner.
if you disagree, you need to source the official reasons and then challenge them.

Ok I will bite.
What is a Bharat Ratna, What is its significance and who were the past awardees and why?.
Maybe this should be understood before we talk about awarding it to SRT.
