Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The evidence provided for the 'prizes or awards' criterion was deemed insufficient, as the certificates were considered expressions of appreciation for participation rather than competitive awards for excellence. The plaques submitted lacked the petitioner's name, reference to a competition, and were not supported by objective evidence like media coverage.
