Padma Bhushan for Vizzy and not even a Padma Shri for Vijay Merchant, Subhash Gupte and Mohinder Amarnath!

Considering the fact that cricketing colossus like Vijay Merchant, Subhash Gupte and Mohinder Amarnath were not even given the lowest-ranked national award [Padma Shri], the entire logic of the Padma Awards has to be questioned.
