The Palakkad based 'Anti Corruption and Human Rights Council has lodged a complaint against the nomination of actor Mohanlal for the Padma Bhushan award. The complaint was given to the Central Home Secretary. The complainants have put forward the argument that the state government's decision to nominate Mohanlal was an arbitrary decision which lacked transparency. They have said that it would give a wrong message to the society to give such an award to a person who is an accused in a case under wild life protection act.
Mohanlal was found to be in possession of ivory when IT raids were conducted at his house. A copy of the complaint was sent to the Prime Minister and the President. No mainstream actor alive today has won Padmabhushan before.
