Frankly, much against my nature, I was in Cloud Nine, hesitating to climb down! As it is difficult, if not impossible, for me to individually acknowledge each well wisher, I am choosing to send a million thanks via this missive. I have made a table of all those to whom thanks are due. If I have missed some, it is just a slip, pardon me.

Many friends have been asking for details about KLN Award. Complete details are given in http://kanuri.org/ The KLN Award seeks to recognize individuals, social catalysts, who have advanced our understanding and awareness of issues and challenges affecting elders, thereby enhancing the dignity, care, and well-being of elders in a changing society. The KLN Award will be given up to four times a year. The awardee receives a certificate and a cheque for Rs. 200,000. The name of the first awardee (Dr Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy) was announced on June 5th 2014. It will be given on June 15, the United Nations’ World Elder Abuse Awareness day. The website answers all doubts through an FAQ. This award is not based on any application from individuals and subsequent selection. You cannot send nominations or recommendations. The KLN Trust which has instituted the award searches, sifts, selecta and reaches out to the suitable candidate concerned on its own. All along I have taken pride in searching Google for answering my own and others queries and consider myself as a semi-expert. Deccan Chronicle called me The Internet Hunter sometime ago. For a change, KLN Trust Googled and reached me as a suitable person for the award!. Sri Manohar Kanuri of the trust met me personally some months ago and thereafter we exchanged many email messages and telephone calls. Therefore I am happy about the role played by Google and the Internet in general – I am pleased that I have left enough footprints to trace me down. -- Posted By Blogger to kaaranam-ketkadey http://vyasa-kaaranam-ketkadey.blogspot.com/2014/06/kln-award-and-gooogle-bi... at 6/06/2014 08:56:00 PM -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
