Amritrao Deshmukh. He was a social activist related to the fields of education, health, and rural self-reliance. He also was a member of Bhartiya Jan Sangh and a Member of Parliament from Rajya Sabha.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nanaji Deshmukh was born in Hingoli district in eastern Maharashtra. He sold vegetables to supplement his educational expenses as a child. Due to his hard work and perseverance, he managed to get into Birla College and moved on to join RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In RSS, Nanaji Deshmukh was active mainly in the state of Uttar Pradesh, where he raised the ranks to become Saha Prant Pracharak of complete state. Inspired by Bal Gangadhar Tilak since his childhood, Deshmukh had a keen interest in social service. He established nearly 250 sangh sakhas in Uttar Pradesh within two years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Due to his impeccable record on social service in the field of health and education along with making villages economy self reliant; Government of India conferred Nanaji Deshmukh with one of India\u2019s highest civilian honours, Bharat Ratna on 8<sup>th<\/sup> August 2019.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bharat_Ratna_Award\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-size: 18pt;\">Bharat Ratna Award<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The highest civilian award of the Republic of India is known as <strong>BHARAT RATNA<\/strong>.

A Sanad (certificate) signed by the President and a medallion in the shape of a peepal leaf are the only two things being given to the recipients; no money is granted with the award.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the Indian order of precedence, the Bharat Ratna award comes in the seventh position. But Bharat Ratna recipients are constitutionally prohibited to use the award name as the title as per Article 18 of the Constitution of India.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Since 1954, 44 distinguished individuals have been awarded this prestigious and highest civilian award in the country.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions_FAQs_on_Nanaji_Deshmukh\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18pt; color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on Nanaji Deshmukh<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\t\t<section class=\"sc_fs_faq sc_card \">\n\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_is_Nanaji_Deshmukh\"><\/span>Who is Nanaji Deshmukh?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tNanaji Deshmukh, born as Chandikadas Amritrao Deshmukh, was a prominent Indian social activist, politician, and RSS leader.
