My salute to Late Kewal Semlaniji...
> >
> > I have met Late shri Kewal Semlani twice but his image is indellible in my mind.He was a great figher of RTI and a torch bearer. It is he who created awreness about RTI in millions including me.It is sad that he is no more. I dont know how awards are given to those who have only worked to promote self where as here was a man who worked for masses and at his cost and time. I dont know whether aam admi ( common men) can create pressure on govt and ensure that people who have worked for countrymen are suitably acknowledged. It is sad that media also only glorifies the self seekers be it cricketers, filmies or alike who work only to serve their ends and yet get all the awards ( they may get their proffessional awrads but not the public / national award ) for doing nothing for others.
