---

In Walk The Talk with Shekhar Gupta on NDTV, badminton ace Saina Nehwal clarified that she was not angry with the sports ministry for its refusal to consider her for the prestigious Padma Bhushan award. Saina said her job is to be on the court and she's not kind of person who wants to get into controversies. Her name has been recommended for country's third highest civilian honour as a 'special case' after the world No.4 had expressed her anger over the snub.
