NDTV will today present the ‘Indian Of The Year’ awards that acknowledge distinguished visionaries, political figures, sports icons, and entertainers who have not only fortified the pillars of our society but have also contributed to the development of India

These awards honour individuals who have displayed foresight embraced uniqueness, and redefined the essence of ‘being a true Indian’. The aim of the initiative is to honour exceptional Indians from various fields. The awards recognise those who have thought ahead, dared to be different and redefined the meaning of ‘being a true Indian’.

Here are the live updates from NDTV Indian of the Year Awards:

Devendra Fadnavis’s swearing-in as Maharashtra CM was delayed due to Eknath Shinde’s reluctance to be sworn in as Deputy CM. Shinde wanted assurances on portfolio allocation. After persuasion, Shinde agreed, and Fadnavis informed the Governor. The oath-taking ceremony proceeded as planned, with both Fadnavis and Shinde taking their oaths.
