The Senior Citizen Awards - The Unstoppable adhered to a process of selection which had the CNN-IBN Editorial Board at its core. 

Rajdeep Sardesai, Editor-in-Chief, CNN-IBN, IBN7 & IBN-Lokmat, shares his views about the awards, saying, "We are proud to bestow this honor on our senior citizens who work at the grassroots to uplift our society without looking for any kind of recognition in return. These citizens have withstood the odds of age and have zealously taken it upon themselves to pave way for a better future for the generations to come."
