Thane:
A tribal woman in Maharashtra's Thane district, recipient of a national bravery award for children, on Wednesday returned the honour because her family could not get ration at Public Distribution System (PDS) shops.
Some 400 tribal families of Shahpur tehsil face this plight, claimed Hali Raghunath Baraf.
Ms Baraf, now in her 20s, received the "Veer Bapuji Gandhani Rashtriya Balveer Award" in 2013 for saving her sister from the clutches of a leopard.
She was 15 years old when the incident took place.
But the award did not change anything for her family, she said in a press release.
