However which category of Padma they will be conferred has not yet been decided.
The top Union Home Ministry has not yet specified the Padma category for Dhoni, Sindhu and Gopichand, but confirmation has been received the about these three sportstars among other recipients. The awards will be conferred on the eve of the 68th Republic day on January 26 this year.
Earlier in 2015, PV Sindhu received the Padma Shri and has been the youngest recipient of this award which is India’s fourth highest civilian honour. she termed the 2015 Padma Shri as a ‘pleasant surprise’.
