They are government awards so they are always going to have a political shade even though they shouldn't. Political institutions are always compromised and even more so in volatile countries like India.
Industry awards like the Oscars also have their biases but biases are still different from actual political control the way government based awards have. The same kind of BS goes on when it comes to Padma Shri and all that too.
then why do people give so much importance to national awards when it has political motivation and bias? even before uri released people predicted that it would win national awards just based n the films topic
