Noida: ” some of the journalists are in such a hurry to break the news that they publish without verifying the news. A journalist must research all facts before producing and publishing the news. A journalist should have true integrity along with a good hold over the language.” said Dr. Sandeep Marwah President of International Journalism Centre & President Marwah Studios while presenting the awards to journalists on the occasion of Narada Jyanti organised by Vishva Samvad Kendra at Yatharth Hospital Auditorium, Greater Noida.

Narad Muni was a popular sage in Hindu Mythology who was a travelling musician, and storyteller, who carried news and wisdom everywhere he went. Vishwa Samvad Kendra is a Media Centre with a difference – a difference defined by its motto: Samvadat Souhardam, ’Amity through Interaction’. The mighty national resurgence through which the country is currently passing makes it necessary.

K. A. Badrinath, Chief Advisor, Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Government of India said “Maharishi Narada was an ideal journalist and the first one in the universe. Today’s journalists can learn from Narada to speak on public welfare effectively despite adverse circumstances.”

Bhuvan Bhaskar, Manager, Public Relations, NCDEX added, “Journalism has one religion – objectivity. Your writing can be effective only if you do journalism with fairness. Sides can be taken but only by virtue of truth.”

Later the management of Vishwa Samvad Kendra announced an award for Sandeep Marwah and he was honoured by other dignities for his untiring contribution to journalism.
