BEST FEATURE- MAGAZINE JAYASHREE ARUNACHALAM | TAMIL NADU THE CRADLE OF LIFE|FOUNTAIN INK

JayashreeArunachalam's feature 'The Cradle Of Life' is a very comprehensive analysis of Tamil Nadu's cradle baby scheme wherein cradles are installed in certain areas where babies can be placed for adoption by government agencies.

It gives a very nuanced critical narrative of a very complex problem and it addresses the contemporariness of a very relevant issue.

BEST ADVERTISEMENT -PRODUCT LOWE LINTAS TVC |HAVELLS ‐ RESPECT WOMEN

The series of Havell's ads – Respect Women, touch upon the innumerable ways in which women are treated as instrumental to men's needs, undermining their dignity and self‐ respect.

FEATURE FILM VIKAS BAHL I QUEEN Queen is a tale, simply told, with characters that are real and possible to identify with. Deftly, yet with a light touch, it deals with the troubled issues (especially in our society) of womens' independence, freedom and most importantly, of self respect. It is reassuring to see that audiences have been able to identify with Rani, the main character. They comfortably journey with her as she retains her space and identity and moves gently from pain and loss to acceptance and confidence. The film works as a whole as well, with good characterizations and performances." BOOK-NON FICTION Dr.SWATI TIWARI Dr. Swati Tiwari, in her book, “Sawaal Aaj Bhi Zinda Hai” despairs that the SAWAAL AAJ BHI ZINDA HAI Bhopal Gas Disaster is not just a tragedy for Bhopal but for the entire Nation.

BOOK ‐ THROUGH THE GENDER LENS

Through the Gender Lens brings the writings from across the country that reflects exemplary courage, commitment and sincerity of media persons in reporting on gender issues. It is a compilation of some of the most gender sensitive writing chosen specifically from our award winning entries from print, electronic and web media. The media persons represented in Through Gender Lens cut across different types of media organizations – from national newspapers and TV channels to regional publications to community newspapers and radio. The stories from regions facing insurgency, Naxalism and armed conflict are particularly riveting as they give us an insight in to their impact on women and their lives.

The articles and features showcase how events, incidents, progammes, policies and data could be analyzed using a gender lens. They demonstrate the role of the media as the watch dog, the conscience keeper and the change maker. The insights they bring out are thought provoking and the stories they narrate are inspiring and at times heart rending. WESTERN REGION AWARDS
