Dr. John Dayal wins ‘Maanav Adhikaar Paaritaushik’
Bhopal, December 12 (Pervez Bari): Dr. John Dayal, member of the National Integration Council of India, has won the “Maanav Adhikaar Paaritaushik” (Human Dignity Award) of Rupees One lakh in the memory of Prof. M. M. Guptara, a Press release said.
Dr. Dayal has spent his life in investigating, and then helping individual cases of human rights abuse, as well as struggling against structural human rights abuse aimed at whole groups (such as Dalits, Muslims and Christians), and fighting organised human rights abuse - for example in Vadodara and in Orissa, the release stated.
At a time in our nation's history when we have been struck down from the heights by the current global crisis as well as by the terrorist attacks in Mumbai, it is important not only to celebrate the strengths and beauties of the various cultures in our country, but also to recognise individual efforts to cleanse our country of its evils.
"Over several decades, and at the cost of his own health and finances, Dr. Dayal has helped people regardless of ethnicity, gender, economic status, religion or any other criterion. That is something surely worth celebrating," said Prof. Prabhu Guptara.
Recognising that the award is only a token, the Guptara family deeply appreciates Dr. Dayal's lifetime of exceptional efforts and service to our country, the release concluded. (pervezbari@eth.net)
