Frankly I don't care for these governmental honors anyway - the fact that Rafi saab didn't get a Padma Bhushan or Bharat Ratna doesn't change the fact that he's a legend.
Ustad Bismillah Khan got a Bharat Ratna, but the dear old man still lives in poverty and most of today's generation barely knows him.
Can anyone tell me the name of 10 people who received the Bharat Ratna (without googling it)?
Big deal.
'India did not give Mohammed Rafi his due'
I think this statement is 100% correct. Here "India" does not mean the people of India, but the government of India. Rafi saab is the GOD of Hindi Film Music, and its a shame that the geniasses who make these decisions did not realise the contribution of Md. Rafi till now.

These ** ahem ahem** 😆😆 people have missed so many greats, Rafi Saab is not their only casualty.
List of Awardees of Padma Shree till date
This gives an idea of their complete myiopic view when it comes to awardees.
I know. But Rajiv Gandhi recieved the Bharat Ratna, and someday Sonia will recieve it too. But the govt. did not feel that Netaji, Bhagat Singh, and many more deserved it.
