Dr Gowda, a Padmashree awaredee, said society should not discriminate women. Both male and female are interdependent. It is sad to see the discrimination rising even at high levels in the society. He likened woman to a doctor of the family as she take care of the family’s health. Her presence is seen in every walk of life – from the sky to the earth, he said.

Skit by Cauvery Kanya Gurukulam students

Padmashali has filed a petition in the Supreme Court of India against Section 377 stating that the colonial law is in violation of the constitutional rights as well as the 2014 National Legal Service Authority judgment. She was invited by the International Bar Association to speak about the legal rights of sexual minorities, in a conference held at Tokyo in October 2014. She is the first transgender person to receive an honorary doctorate from the Indian Virtual University for Peace and Education.
Constable, Karnataka State Police posted at Electronic City Police Station, Bengaluru, Archana showed exemplary humane concern by breastfeeding an abandoned child on May 30th, 2018.

Team PRCI-YCC Bengaluru
Mr MB Jayaram, Chairman Emeritus and Chief Mentor of PRCI expressed gratitude to all guests for participating in the event. He also mentioned that daughters are our pride to our nation and equal opportunities have to be given to them. Empowering the girl child would bring a positive change to the society.

A skit by 17 girl students from Cauvery Kanya Gurukulam of Srirangapatna and a play SEE ME AS WE by Acharya Institute of Graduation Students were the other highlights of the event.
#Shakti4Beti campaign was launched in 2016, urging Prime Minister Narendra Modi to declare 1 July as Daughter’s Day in memory of astronaut Kalpana Chawla. This campaign falls in line with the Union government’s campaign ‘BetiBachaoBetiPadhao’ to communicate the issue of security of the girl child. PRCI has been trying to create awareness about such an empowerment of girls and women.

Save Parsik HiIl Campaign wins international recognition




MUMBAI:  Concept PR has earned the Gold under PR Agency Achievement of the Year category in the prestigious US-based 7th Annual PR World Awards for its social communication campaign #Save Parsik Hill, executed on behalf of Public Relations Council of India (PRCI).

This is the second consecutive PR World award for PRCI and Concept PR as their campaign, #Mission Mumbai Local, has won Gold under PR Milestone of the Year at the 6th edition of the awards last year. Concept PR is the lone Indian agency to figure in the awardees list.

 Save Parsik Hill campaign focused on the need to stop check plundering of the hills under the guise of quarrying and protects the bio-diversity of the area. The hills have been the major source of stones for the construction industry in Mumbai Metropolitan Region for over four decades and they have ravaged by blasting and exploiting much beyond the officially allotted areas.
“The PR World Award is recognition of a novel Social Communication Campaign initiated by Concept PR to focus on issues of community interest,” said Ashish Jalan, CEO and director of Concept PR. “It also stands testimony to the consultancy’s professional commitment, dedication and team work. We are happy to have executed the Parsik Hill campaign on behalf of not-for-profit PRCI,” he said.
“We launched a well orchestrated social communication campaign on the Environment Day in association with the Mumbai Press Club last year,” said B N Kumar, executive director – Concept PR. The basic idea was to bring into sharp focus the environmental damage being done by unchecked quarrying. The campaign involved twitter, facebook posts and an online petition to the Chief Minister to stop further quarrying of the Hills, he said.

Four NGOs – Shree Ekvira Aai Pratishtan (SEAP), Awaaz Foundation, Vanashakti and Watchdog Foundation have backed the drive. Later, SEAP continuously supported the campaign by writing to various authorities such as the Thane district collector, Konkan Divisional Commissioner, the forest and pollution control board officials pointing out that many hills have begun to disappear and whatever is left needs to be saved..
As the massive public opinion gained momentum, various stake holders and government agencies have veered round to the fact that Parsik Hill quarrying needs to be stopped now. Even the Maharashtra’s Directorate of Geology and Mining has said Parsik Hills have come under danger zone.
“We are happy to have been associated with the PRCI campaign Save Parsik Hill. The consistent campaign has been able to raise awareness levels among various stakeholders,” said Nandakumar Pawar, forunder director of Shree Ekvira Aai Pratishtan (SEAP). “But the battle is not yet over. We have to ensure Parsik Hill is protected from quarrying altogether. SEAP, along with PRCI, will continue the campaign through various tools of communication,” he added..
M B Jayaram, Chief Mentor and Chairman Emeritus of PRCI, said: “We are glad that the joint efforts are paying dividends. It has been great experience working with Concept PR on our campaigns and win international recognition for the second consecutive year.”
The coveted annual SVUS PR World Awards programme encompasses the world’s best in recognizing public relations, marketing, corporate communications, investor relations, and business development professionals, teams, departments, and achievements from every major industry in the world. Organizations from all over the world including public and private, for-profit and non-profit, largest to smallest and new start-ups, have submitted their nominations.
More than 80 judges from a broad spectrum of industry voices from around the world participated and their average scores determined the 2018 award winners, the organizers said.

Level-playing field for Girls, please!

As PRCI celebrates Daughters’ Day to commemorate late Indo-US astronaut Kalpana Chawla, here are some random thoughts by M B JAYARAM, Chief Mentor and Chairman Emeritus of the national communicators body

Kalpana Chawla has been inspiration for many girls as she demonstrated to us as to how one reach the sky with hard work, determination and above all focused approach.
All that girls need proper opportunities and you see how they excel.
In this context, let me mention that PRCI has aptly chosen #Shakti4Beti as our focused theme to empower the girl child.
India is a society of contrasts and even contradictions.
On the one hand the society worships deities such as Durga as the symbol of Shakti or triumph of good over evil, and Lakshmi as the Goddess of Wealth, while on the other girls and women are still being subjected to ill-treatment.
Even in the 21st century, and at a time when India is racing to emerge as an economic super power, it is really sad that women and girls are discriminated against. Gender disparity is still a major socio-economic issue.

Isn’t is a sad commentary on the society in general that we need to have women welfare departments and women rights commission as though they are some endangered species?
 I do not think that many right thinking women would crave for privileges and any special treatment – be it at home, school/college or even at work places.
Girls just want level playing field. PRCI also supports the same thought when wesays Shakti4beti.
Women always excelled if they are given freedom as men and not shackled with anti-women practices.
Apart from mythology, even history has innumerable examples of women doing wonders. Take the case of Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi, or for that matter freedom fighters such as Sarojini Naidu who were in the forefront of struggle against British tyranny. Kasturba worked silently with Mahatma Gandhi. In post -independent India too women have done as good as men and even better at times.
In education, sports, social service, politics, management, movies, corporate sector – you name it, you have women excelling.
Even at PRCI, we have many women working with their men that too without any inhibitions and issues! In fact, the Daughters Day event at Bengaluru was successfully led several women office-bearers.
But it is still sad that the ratio of women coming out into the open isn’t  very encouraging.
Majority of girls and women are still being relegated to domestic work and the kitchen.
But with increasing education and the society becoming liberal, things should improve and the girl child will get empowered.
I am of the strong opinion that the empowerment begins at home.
Mothers, more than anyone else, should unshackle themselves and treat their daughters on par with boys.
This thought has to be communicated well through various means of communication, including social and traditional media.
I know social media is a double edged sword. I am sure with proper use it will help us cut through the mindset against the girl child.
Shakti4beti will have achieved what it is meant for.
I sincerely hope that we will not have to celebrate daughters’ day specially. We shall work towards observing  a Skill Development or Talent Promotion Day, next year!
But to achieve this PRCI will have to do aggressive communication which I am sure our teams are capable of.
Finally, let me say: Shakti4Society – not mere for Beti!

#Shakti4Beti –campaign to empower girl child


Need to go beyond #BetiBachaoBetiPadhao, 

say communication activists


MUMBAI/BENGALURU, June 15: With #Shakti4Beti as theme  focusing on empowering the girl child, a social communication campaign has been launched.
In an annual event, National communicators body Public Relations Council of India (PRCI) observes July 1 – the official birth anniversary of Indo-US astronaut late Kalpana Chawla – as the Daughters’ Day to draw the attention of the society on issues related to the girl child.
A skit focusing on Daughers being enacted at SIMSR, Mumbai, last July
 “We are inspired by the government’s campaign #BetiBachaoBetiPadhao,” said PRCI governing council chairman B N Kumar. “PRCI is keen that the society goes beyond protecting and educating the girl child. As a democratic, civilized society we must empower the girl child so that she plays a niche role in the nation building activities, Kumar, who is also a social communication activist, said.
“A girl child in India continues to be given a raw treatment,” said PRCI chief mentor and chairman emeritus M B Jayaram. “Be it in rural areas, agriculture fields or even in places of work and bollywood, women have been complaining of discrimination,” he said and stressed that women deserve level playing field.
“How can we even imagine the New India-2022 story without the active involvement of daughters,” asked educationist and chairperson of PRCI’s youth wing Young Communicators Club Geetha Shankar. Enough has been said and written about girls and boys working as equals, but precious little has been done, she said and stressed: “Women do not crave for any favours. Please do not put any obstacles in our growth,” she said.
...at Bengaluru, last year
The campaign launched today will culminate around July 1. Apart from holding events around #Shakti4Beti or #EmpoweringDaughter, PRCI and YCC will hold a series of activities across its chapters in various cities such as Bengaluru, Mumbai, New Delhi, Kochi, Chennai, Kolkata, Bhubaneswar and Chandigarh mobilizing communication students from universities and colleges to do the messaging.
Contests in debates, short films, photography, poster design, and street play will be held apart from social media campaigns. An online petition addressed to the President of India, Women and Child Welfare Minister and the National Women’s Rights Commission will be launched requesting listing out an agenda towards ensuring a level playing field for the girl child, PRCI said.

Why should I read newspapers?

Recently, we (at PRCI) had an opportunity for interns in journalism for working on editorial supplements for a Mumbai newspaper. While we received few entries to our invitation to write essays on some current topics, one of the candidates bowled a bouncer! We asked him as to which are the newspapers that he reads. He shot back: “Why should I read any newspaper and know about what has already happened?” The panel of interviewers did not know where to look! And this reminded me of a question that a journalism student at Andheri (Mumbai) asked me: who is Rajdeep Sardesai!

Wanted: #GST4Petrol

Please sign this petition addressed to the PM.
https://www.change.org/p/how-long-do-we-have-to-reel-under-fuel-price-hike-weight?recruiter=29763990&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=copylink&utm_campaign=share_petition.

How long do we have to bear this burden?
Petrol and diesel prices are skyrocketing again. The common man doesnt get any respite despite promises from ruling party and protests by the opposition
Our simple question is: Why can't we bring petrol and diesel prices  under GST?
At present, a central excise duty of 23% and State VAT of 34% is  levied on petrol and diesel. Thus, the total tax works out to 57%.
If these essential products are brought under GST , the maximum tax will be only 28%. This means the prices of petrol and diesel can come down by almost 50%.
The people and the economy at at large will be benefited as it will have a positive, cascading effect. 
Please act in public interest and give the common man the much-needed relief.

Veteran Communication professional Deepak Neogi is no more

Sad to share the news that our old friend, journalist-turned PR professional Deepak Neogi is more.
I had never thought in my wildest dreams that I would be penning obits for my close friends - first it was Parthasarathi Swami, managing editor of Business India, and now Deepak.
Deepak had stomach cancer that spread to other parts of his body. He breathed last around 8 PM yesterday.
Deepak (63) started his career as a journalist at Hitavada in Nagpur. He came to Mumbai to join Free Press Journal in 1977-78. He later joined UNI and  switched over to PR by joining INPUT (Information and Public relations Unit), a Reliance outfit under Mudra Communication.
He was actively involved in the launch of Reliance Infocomm under the leadership of Mukesh Ambani and remained with the company after Anil Ambani took it over.
Very friendly by nature, Deepak was known for his signature smile.
He was also associated with Public Relations Society of India (PRSI).
Our heartfelt condolences to his wife Sharmila and daughter Nandini.

Here are some condolence messages received to my Facebook post:

Financial Stability of journos must for Press Freedom, says Press Council Chairman

        At RedInk awards, Justice Prasad defends wage boards for newsmen
        Mark Tully gets of the RedInk Lifetime Achievement Award, says Radio journalism should be resurrected in India
         Media owners say it is not a great business, but there is money to be made

MUMBAI: To ensure freedom for the news media, it is necessary to ensure the financial stability of journalists, and job security. It is only if a journalist is financially secure that he can do his job with peace of mind, said Justice C K Prasad, chairman of the Press Council of India (PCI).
Giving his closing remarks as the chief guest at the ‘National Red Ink Awards for Excellence in Journalist’ instituted by Mumbai Press Club (www.mumbaipressclub.com) on Friday night, Justice Prasad said it was not fair on the part of media owners to run down the appointment of Wage Boards for media employees. Other industries such as cement and pharmaceuticals are all governed by the Minimum Wages Act, where such law does not exist for newspaper employees, he pointed out.
 “An editor returning to his office only to receive a pink slip does not augur well for the free press,” he said, adding that he had examined the balance sheet of many media groups and found the profits they were making could easily support the payment of Wage Board salaries.
Earlier, he emphasized that the job of the Press Council of India is to ensure the freedom of the press, and “we are not here to regulate the media.”
Sir Mark Tully receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award
Sir Mark Tully, who worked for over two decades as the bureau chief of BBC in the subcontinent, received the RedInk Award for Lifetime Achievement’. In his acceptance speech, Tully said he grew up as radio reporter, and he would always prefer radio to television. Radio broadcasts gave a personal touch as “the listener gets the feeling that the news reader or reporter talks to him directly,” he said and recalled how at a village gathering in Uttar Pardesh, people greeted him as “a friend”.
Sir Mark, who was deported during the emergency, said for journalists’ credibility is everything, and in today’s age they must learn to grapple with fake news. Just a small crosscheck and verification of facts would help in giving the right information to the society. He said public service broadcasting was a bolstering factor of a free press. Citing the BBC as an example, Tully said in his 40 years of working for the organisation, he could not recall a single instance where he had been asked to change or drop his news dispatch.
Your editor with Faye!
Faye D’souza, executive editor of TV channel Mirror Now, who was given the ‘Journalist of the year’ Award said her reporting was built on covering the issues that affected the common man. Focusing on credible news without much antics helped her channel stand out in the crowd and make a mark for itself.
“I stick my neck out to report not what politicians are saying but what hits the man on the street, even as the entire media could be busy with irrelevant breaking news,” she said.
A high power panel consisting of Vijay Darda, Chairman, Lokmat Group, Raghav Bahl, Founder & Chairman, Quintillion Media, Anant Goenka, Executive Director, The Indian Express Group, and Samir Patil, founder and CEO of Scroll Media, debated the important and relevant issue of: Is there a business in News Media’.  Senior Journalist and Founder of IndiaSpend.Org  Govindraj Ethiraj anchored the panel discussion.
Most of the panellists agreed that news media is not a great business but there is money to be made. Raghav Bahl stressed that as the scenario shifted to digital platforms, a healthy business in niche areas was not difficult. As the business scaled up along with the number of brands, the challenges also increased. He emphasized that the mandatory legal requirement in broadcasting for 51 percent Indian ownership had become a bottleneck to expansion. It was not a level playing field as the law did not apply to other areas like print or digital.
The Secretary of the Mumbai Press Club, Dharmendra Jore, in his welcome speech said this year the RedInk Awards had received a record over-2,000 entries. Gurbir Singh, the convenor of the Awards Committee, said accusing the media of being anti-establishment was foolish as by its very nature news media will always be anti-establishment irrespective of the party in power.
Awards were given away in 11 competitive categories and five special categories. As many as 32 journalists received trophies and Rs one lakh as cash prizes. The RedInk Award for ‘A Media Start-up that is making a difference’ was given to IndiaSpend.org, for its initiative in developing data journalism in India.

PRCI-YCC award inspires her - Young Nitignya's gets place for pre-school



Young student from Mumbai Nitignya Waghela received the Kautilya Award for Student Social Service for her exemplary work in promoting education among the children of poor. She helped at least a hundred children get education and PRCI has adopted one girl nominated by her Shiksha Foundation. Please check this moving letter from her.
  
Hi,
B N Kumar sir and PRCI:

Thank you so much for the award from PRCI-YCC, presented during the Pune Conclave.
After receiving the award from the chief guest Mr. Kumar Ketkar at Symbiosis Vishwabhavan, on 10th march 2018, I developed confidence and  started my work with full enthusiasm on my dream project to start a pre-school for the children below the age group of 8 years
i.e from lower KG TO 2ND standard.
This project is for for those kids whose parents keep migrating from one place to another and due to the lack of documents they do not get admission in any other government/private school.
Therefore, the agenda of this free school is to provide basic education as well as a the school leaving certificate. The Shiksha Foundation with which I have been associated for few years already has the permission to run a school till 4th class.
But a major problem that we faced each and every time was place for the school premises which meant lot of funds which we do not have.
Nitignya receiving the inspiring PRCI-YCC award from Kumar Ketkar, now Rajya Sabha MP
On receiving the YCC award, my confidence levels doubled and I was inspired to work on the school project with added vigour!, I also used the award in support of my dream project. All that I needed was an inspiration and new drive which, sir,  I got from PRCI-YCC.
Thank you so much BNK sir and PRCI.
While promoting the project, I met a Mr. Sudhakar Kamath who ffully understood the concept and expressed his readiness to give 4,000 sq ft to run the school at Palghar-Manor on the putskirts of Mumbai, that too on a lease of just Rs. 10/-
He has also promised to fulfill all the requirements by October 2018.
It is the stepping stone towards realising dream and I have no words to express my appreciation to the encouragement that I received from PRCI-YCC.

With your and PRCI’s blessings, I am sure, we will succeed in providing basic, quality education to the children of migrant labour.

Thank You So Much Sir

Regards
NITIGNYA WAGHELA

Yess, we voted!

Snapshots of PRCI fraternity which celebrated democracy by voting in Bangalore today. 
PRCI firmly believes that Communication and Democracy go together.
