Times Now confirms the Amazing Indians Awards 2026 will take place in New Delhi on September 30. The ceremony honors individuals driving tangible change in healthcare, women’s rights, and child development. It’s not just a gala; it’s a spotlight on unsung heroes.
The nominees represent a stark contrast to typical celebrity lists. In Mumbai, Audrey Dmello, 53, leverages her legal and management degrees to direct Majlis Manch, tackling gender-based social challenges. Meanwhile, in Muzaffarpur, Bihar, 20-year-old Dr. Jahnavi runs Girl Up CHIKKA and EqualWings Foundation. She holds an honorary doctorate in Social Work while pursuing a B.A. LL.B. — a rare blend of academic rigor and grassroots activism.
Other key figures include Reeta Kaushik, 52, who has spent 30 years with SKVS in Gorakhpur, and Anant Nevatia, 63, President of the Rural Health Care Foundation. Nevatia focuses on bridging the healthcare gap for underserved rural communities. These aren’t distant bureaucrats; they’re the people on the ground, managing resources and advocating for dignity.
The event aims to pull these stories out of the digital noise. By featuring them on a national stage, Times Now seeks to validate their long-term commitment. For families in vulnerable communities, this recognition signals that local efforts matter to the broader national narrative.
