Pune (Maharashtra) : Two organizations viz. ‘Naate Samaajaashi’ and ‘Jain Parivar’ have jointly conferred international journalism award to Shri. Suresh Chavhanke, the Editor of Sudasrhan channel and ‘Yuva keertankar’ award to H.B.P. Shyam Maharaj Rathod. The awards were presented on 12th May at S. M. Joshi Hall during ‘Gaurav Maharashtra cha’ program. Awards were also conferred on few Marathi persons for their remarkable contributions in the fields of national and international journalism, spirituality, arts etc. Sculptor ‘Padmashri’ Raju Sutar, social reformist Dr. Shweta Patil, retired Colonel Mohan Kakatikar were the other dignitaries who were awarded on the occasion. A souvenir was also published named ‘Gaurav Maharashtra cha’ by former MLA Ulhas Pawar. In reply, Shri. Suresh Chavhanke said, “Today, many negative news are published through the media only to increase their TRP. Although media is required for people to bring improvement in the condition of society, it should be aware of its responsibility and show such programs that will increase our self-respect.”  

Ideology adopted by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj is required today ! – H. B. P. Shyam Maharaj Rathod

H.B.P. Shyam Maharaj Rathod said, “Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj used foresight while governing his kingdom. Rama eliminated Ravana in ‘Treta Yuga’, Bhagavan Krushna slew Kansa in ‘Dwapar Yuga’ after which peace prevailed in the world. Even now, we will have to take help of Saints and their guidance for establishing peace in this world.”

Attacks on ‘Hindutva’ will be published despite facing obstacles ! – Shri. Suresh Chavhanke

Pro-Hindu activists had discussions with Shri. Suresh Chavhanke before the program when he said, “We receive threats when we publish frank news related to ‘Hinduttva’. Even then, we will continue our mission. Hindu-hater Dr. Zakir Naik’s insulting comments about Sri Ganesha were published through our channel. In future also, I’ll present information on attacks on ‘Hinduttva’ for all 52 weeks of the year on various topics. Today, Sudarshan channel is considered to be among the first ten popular channels. We are going to start our branch in Maharashtra, in future.”

Representatives of H.H. Asaram Bapu Sampradaya, Patanjali Yoga Samiti, Bajarang Dal, Warakari Sampradaya, BJP, VHP, Hindu Janajagruti Samiti etc. were present on this occasion.
