Breaking News: The Swami Vivekanand Pride Award Finds Me—And I’m Not Sorry | Award -Reward | Painter Babu Rishabh Shukla
Receiving the Swami Vivekanand Pride Award from the WELRED Foundation is nothing short of humbling. But let’s be real—I didn’t get here by following the crowd. I got here by questioning it. Journalism is not about just reporting what’s on the surface; it’s about digging deeper, speaking the truth—even when it’s inconvenient. This award isn’t just a recognition of my work, but a reminder that in an age of noise, integrity still matters. A heartfelt thank you to the WELRED Foundation for honoring my journey. To my readers, my mentors, and yes, even to my critics—this one’s for all of us, because journalism is never a solo act. Let’s keep pushing boundaries, one story at a time.
