Real Heroes is a movement to acknowledge the unsung champions of the common man who strove tirelessly to promote the welfare of others. These Real Heroes were shortlisted by the editorial team of CNN-IBN, and they were spread across six categories including, Women Welfare, Social Welfare, Health and Disability, Youth, Education and Children & Sports. The ceremony was attended by luminaries including CMD of Reliance Industries, Mr. Mukesh Ambani, his wife, Mrs. Nita Ambani, Sachin Tendulkar, Aamir Khan, Yash Chopra and other eminent personalities applauded the heroes who through their extraordinary work have made a difference. Each of the Real Heroes was presented a trophy along with a cash prize of Rs 5 lakh. The Real Heroes all represent an inspirational story of selfless service, these range from a mechanic in Jharkhand who has set up an orphanage with his own meagre resources to provide education, food and shelter to children who were left orphans due to polygamy or alcoholism to a person who has been fighting to preserve the environment over the past three decades. From a hockey coach who is on a mission to train players free of cost to an 80 year old gynecologist who is fighting to rehabilitate mentally challenged women and provide them vocational training so they can be financially independent, and many more who have dared to stand up for the betterment of the society were awarded as the Real Heroes. Speaking on the initiative on behalf of Reliance Industries, Nita Ambani, President, Dhirubhai Ambani Foundation said, “I feel proud today - proud to be an Indian. I also feel proud of ‘Indianness’ today. ‘Indianness’ that puts compassion, kindness and empathy before everything else. We salute the benevolence of these extraordinary people. They embody the purity of the human spirit. They may not have received the spotlight of publicity but their actions radiate the sunlight of generosity. Each of these stories is a font of inspiration. My Real Heroes friends you are our crusaders of hope. Thank you for this Rajdeep Sardesai, Editor-in-Chief, IBN18 Network added, “Each one of these real heroes has performed extraordinary deeds to promote the welfare of their fellow citizens and society as a whole. Their path wasn’t easy and they have battled tremendous odds ranging from personal tragedy to social opposition and financial constraints. Yet the flame to make a positive impact has continued to burn bright and they have truly been the instruments of change. I would like to thank all our distinguished guests for their presence here in support of the Real Heroes of our nation”.</p><strong>About the Author:</strong><br />CNN IBN TV18 and <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.relclin.com/" Title="Reliance">Reliance</a> Industries hosted a function to honour 24 real-life heroes and invited icons Aamir Khan, Sachin Tendulkar, <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.relsolar.com/mukesh-ambani.html" Title="Mukesh Ambani">Mukesh Ambani</a> and <a rel="nofollow" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nita_Ambani" Title="Nita Ambani">Nita Ambani</a> to be part of the awards ceremony.<p> Article Source: <a href='http://www.articleseen.com/Article_Reliance-Industries-and-CNN-IBN-honour-24-real-life-heroes_13476.aspx'> http://www.articleseen.com/Article_Reliance Industries and CNN IBN honour 24 real-life heroes_13476.aspx</a></p>
