Article title

[edit]

Surely this is wrong? It's either Chameli Devi Jain Award for Outstanding Woman Journalist or Chameli Devi Jain Award for Outstanding Women Mediapersons (see DYK nomination). Deb (talk) 19:11, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Quote

[edit]

I had placed a quotation on the page which was subsequently removed. I wonder if this could be placed again. Since I am mentioning it here, I do have some hesitations as well whether restoring it is really needed or not. Maybe it could be merged inline.

"...A young woman entrant to journalism today may wonder why these women are being celebrated. Because journalism as they know and understand it did not exist till the mid 1970s. A lot of the earlier awardees were true pioneers..."[1]
