It is a typical Indian mentality that when someone gets an award or recognition, others would also like to get the same. According to sources, the award this year was given only to People of Indian origin and not to any Non Resident Indians. That explains why two prominent Malayali businessmen in Gulf did not get the award. " Malayalis are the largest NRI community in the Gulf, why our people are not given award," asked none other than the Kerala chief Minister A.K.Antony. The final selection was done by a special committee under the Vice President.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-family:courier new;"><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-size:10;"><o:p> </o:p></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-family:courier new;"><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-size:10;">Now another person frm the same Indian community has come forward with a new reveleation.
