Hello
Somanath, expressing his gratitude, said he saw this award not as a personal win, but one of recognition for the ISRO.
Arif Mohammed Khan hailed the Congress MP as one of the best parliamentarians.
The Member of Parliament secured more votes than the other three finalists, Nanjiyamma, Sanju Samson and EP Jayarajan.
Four personalities, including Nanjiyamma, make the final list.
The political activist said the need of the hour was to bring together different energies in the country.
Sudhakaran was in the limelight for fighting political opponents both within and outside his party and emerging as the KPCC president.
Accepting the award, Shailaja said that she dedicates the honour to all the health professionals and workers.
Kerala Congress (M) leader Jose K Mani, Director Jose K Pellissery and Joy Sebastian were the others short-listed for the 2020 award.
This is for the first time that the award has been won by a group of people after it was launched 12 years ago.
