The Story in Brief
IPS officer Nupur Prasad, who led the CBI investigation into actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, has been selected for a President’s Medal, according to NDTV. However, two NDTV versions give different descriptions of the award. One calls it the President’s Medal for Distinguished Service, while the other identifies it as the Medal for Meritorious Service. The reports provide no further details on the selection or the difference between the two categories.
The Indian Opinion
The award is newsworthy, but the conflicting descriptions should not be brushed aside. One-sided claims that it proves the investigation’s conclusions are as unwarranted as dismissing the honour because of the case’s public controversy. The immediate test is simple: the official award list or Home Ministry notification should establish whether Prasad received the Distinguished Service medal or the Medal for Meritorious Service.
