A Padma Bhushan awardee, Ram has achieved several accolades such as, Asian Investigative Journalist of the Year (1990) Award conferred by the Press Foundation of Asia at the "One Asia Assembly", Manila, 1990 for "the courage and diligence which inspired him and his newspaper to continue searching for the truth in the now famous Bofors Case, the disciplined application of his journalistic idealism and the impact of his revelations on the Indian political scene"; B.D.

In September 2000, he wrote a cover story in Frontline, terming as "separatist, revanchist and backward-looking agenda", the 14th Dalai Lama's demand for recognition of Tibet's status by China[3]though he does not mention any human rights violations committed by Chinese government in Tibet.

What about his run in with Jaylalitha?

Neutrality edit

This article is decidedly not neutral, and therefore not in compliance with Wikipedia:neutral point of view. Some of this might even violate wikipedia:biographies of living persons, particularly the allegations of being in the pay of the People's Republic of China. It goes without saing that Wikipedia is not the place to list grievances with the subject matter. I will be trimming the parts that are not neutral; anyone is free to readd them if they are worded neutrally and are sourced withy neutral sources. Picaroon (t) 23:25, 7 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Request for Comments edit

There is an RfC on the question of using "Religion: None" vs. "Religion: None (atheist)" in the infobox on this and other similar pages.

The RfC is at Template talk:Infobox person#RfC: Religion infobox entries for individuals that have no religion.

Please help us determine consensus on this issue. --Guy Macon (talk) 09:17, 24 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
