Indian Monthly Awards
The Indian Monthly Awards, known as IMA in short, are monthly awards from which, some are for Indian Citizens only, whereas others are for all nationstates players. The Indian Civil Awards are also a part of the Indian monthly Awards.The awards stack up ratings, if a person has a rating of 50, in one month, all work he/she does the next month, will add up to the previous rating. The Indian Civil Awards can be found down below The Republic Of India now has Civil Awards, Padma Awards were instituted in 1954 to be awarded to citizens of India in recognition of their distinguished contribution in various spheres of activity including the arts, education, industry, literature, science, sports, medicine, social service and public affairs. It has also been awarded to some distinguished individuals who were not citizens of India but did contribute in various ways to India. The selection criteria have been criticised in some quarters with the claim that many highly deserving artists have been left out in order to favour certain individuals. India has now created an online nomination platform for the common citizens to recommend the nomination for the annually given civilian "Padma" awards. On its obverse, the words "Padma", meaning lotus in Sanskrit, and "Shri", a Sanskrit-derived honorific equivalent to 'Mr.' or 'Ms.' (ie., "Noble One in Blossom"), appear in Devanagari above and below a lotus flower. The geometrical pattern on either side is in burnished bronze. All embossing is in white gold. As of 2020, 3123 people have received the award. It is in no way related to the Outstanding Parliamentarian Award given by the Indian Parliamentary Group. The Founders claim that Sansad Ratna Awards are given on behalf of "civil society" through a transparent selection process by a Jury committee of eminent Parliamentarians, based on the data on various performance parameters.
such as the Padma Shri and The Padma Vibushan, these awards will be given when the Home Minister along with the WA Delegate think that the certain citizen has deserved the award for their extremely good contribution to the region.

The Param Vir Chakra (PVC) is India's highest military decoration, awarded for displaying distinguished acts of valour during wartime. Param Vir Chakra translates as the "Greatest of the Ultimate Brave", and the award is granted for "most conspicuous bravery in the presence of the enemy".

Only 21 military personnel have received this award to date.
