The awards will be notified in the Gazette of India both in English and Hindi. The name, personal number and regimental details on the Sanads and Medals have to be inscribed in Hindi and the Hindi spellings of the name have to be the same as they appear in the Gazette of India notifying the awards. Since it would not be possible to make any alteration or amendment to the Sanad/Medal later on, it is essential that the Gazette Notification contains the correct spellings of the names i.e. as in the official records of the recipients.
It may please be ensured that the Hindi/English spellings of the names and other particulars as written in the citations received from you are absolutely correct. If any amendment thereto is required to be made, the same may be intimated to this Headquarters by fastest means by 30 Aug 2022. As the Ministry of Defence proposes to publish the Gazette Notification immediately after the announcement of awards, it is imperative that changes in particulars of the awardees, if any, are intimated to this HQ positively by 30 Aug 2022. After that date nil report will be assumed and the Gazette would by published as per the particulars given in the citation.
