Sania Mirza and Saina Nehwal get PadmaBhushan; Deepika Kumari gets PadmaShri

Saina Nehwal...
Saina Nehwal won silver medals at All England and World Championship last year. Thanking for the great honor, the 25-year-old shuttler said - It is a great honor and I want to thank the Ministry for giving me the award. I am very happy with the way the last year has gone, I have been performing well. I reached World No.1 last year and now I am World No. 2. I am sure this award will give me more motivation to do well further this year.
