Vartha Bharati Journalist Shamsuddin Enmuru was on Sunday conferred the BG Mohan Das Award for Best Report on Digital Media for the year 2022. The award is presented collaboratively by Gulfkannada.com and Nirat Sahitya Sampad in honor of senior journalist BG Mohan Das.

The award was conferred during a ceremony held at Kannada Bhavan here in the city’s BC road.

Speaking after receiving the award, Shamsuddin said said that the Koraga community, the original inhabitants of the country, are still struggling to live up to their self-esteem and to come into the mainstream of society.

“Deprived of basic amenities, human rights, owing to superstition, bigotry, untouchability. An entire community is on the brink of extinction. My report was a small attempt to bring their plight to the notice of the government. I am glad that people took note of it and it was selected for this prestigious award.” Shamsuddin said.

“I am Thankful to Niratha Sahitya Sampada and Gulf Kannadiga.com team for selecting my report for the award. I am also thankful to the Vartha Bharati team for supporting and encouraging me in my career. With this award I feel I have increased responsibilities now,” he added.

G. Mohan Das’ brother, Udupi District Chamber of Commerce and Industry Joint Secretary B. G. Laxmikant Beskur said that B. N. Mohan Das was very concerned about those who were neglected in society, who were in social distress, and those who were away from the mainstream society.
