ABOUT THE NOMINATION

Nominations for consideration in every category will commence shortly. The dates of commencement and end of nominations will be announced both on this website and in the national print and electronic media. Nominations would be the form of a brief of between 500 and 1,000 words explaining why the nominee deserves the award for that particular category.

Both quantitative and qualitative arguments would be accepted, but neither on the two, on its own would be enough to enter the subsequent short list.

If material inaccuracies/false claims are found to be deliberately inserted in a self-nomination then the nominee would be disqualified from contention for that particular category. However a nominee would be given the chance to correct any inaccurate claim made by a third party.

Nominations must be made in both hard copy and electronic versions. Self nominations must be supported with an official endorsement of the nomination by a top tier institutional executive.

Full instructions about nominations will be provided at least one week before the nomination period begins.
