    In a democratic society all citizens need to take a stand against corruption and must therefore be well informed. The electronic and print media have played a vital role in generating awareness through their reach”.

     

    Explaining the rationale for the awards Mr. P.R.S. Oberoi, Chairman, The Oberoi Group said, “Journalists, who often at substantial personal risk, investigate and expose corrupt practices deserve applause, recognition and encouragement.
