Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the beneficiary's sustained national or international acclaim. The evidence for awards was only a local nomination, not a nationally or internationally recognized prize. The submitted published materials were from local publications or promotional flyers, not major media, and failed to show the beneficiary was the primary subject of articles in publications with significant distribution.
