In a recent ceremony held at the Shyama Shakti Memorial Trust headquarters, our founder, Dr. Akhlaq Ahmed, took the stage to express his profound gratitude and respect for the journalism community. The event, "Voices of Truth," was organized to recognize the tireless efforts of local and regional journalists who often work in challenging conditions to bring important stories to light.
"Journalism is not just a profession; it is a service to humanity," Dr. Ahmed remarked during his keynote address. "Without the courageous work of these individuals, the struggles of the underprivileged would remain unheard, and the stories of hope would remain untold."
The Role of Media in Social Change
The event highlighted several key instances where media coverage directly led to positive outcomes for our charitable initiatives. From highlighting the need for clean water in remote villages to amplifying our call for blood donations during emergencies, the press has been a steadfast partner in our mission.
"The pen is mightier than the sword, but a camera lens focused on the right subject can change the world." - Dr. Akhlaq Ahmed
Looking Ahead
The trust announced a new initiative to provide health insurance support for freelance journalists working in the area. This move was met with applause and appreciation from the gathered press corps. We believe that caring for those who care for society is a fundamental duty.
We look forward to a continued partnership with the media fraternity as we strive to build a more equitable and compassionate society for all.
