They have struggled, made efforts, and devoted their lifetime with commitment and dedication to bring change in their fields. This is the culture of the nation, where giving is not a gift but a way of life, and co-existence is the model of the country. These individuals work without expectation of recognition, yet their actions strengthen communities, inspire others, and uphold the values that have shaped India for generations.”

The Amazing Indians Awards 2025 recognised individuals whose perseverance and dedication have made a lasting impact on their communities and on India’s development.
