Nomination:Sachin Tendulkar
Reason:Only man amidst the controversy of rigging, played to the full potentials and on certain occassions told his Manager that "he will win the match for the country, and he did so". Now that is what is the quality of true Indian. Honesty,integrity, dedication and resillience to fight against the odds. Well done, Sachin, we are proud of U.

Nomination:Veerapan, Sathyamangalam Forest, TamilNadu-Karnataka border, India
Reason: This particular Indian, enthralled the whole nation for nearly 108 days (four months), when the policiticians or the cricketers could not make any difference with their promises or skills.
The main reason being that Veerapan was atleast bothered to secure the release of those people who were arrested because of his involvement.
I wonder if our politicians have this kind of attachment towards the population of billions
