[icernet-admin at listserv.cddc.vt.edu]

Indian journalists took over by storm this year's Commonwealth Broadcasting 
Association (CBA) awards in almost all categories, relegating all other 
Commonwealth countries to the background. The categories they won included 
Exceptional News Feature, Short Story Competition and Outstanding Local 
Children's Broadcasting. The CBA Award for Exceptional News Feature went to 
NDTV's Senior Editor Barkha Dutt, and Ajmal Jami (camera) for their vivid 
and daring report on the communal riots in Gujarat, the British High 
Commission here said. The CBA UNICEF Award for Outstanding Local Children's 
Broadcasting was jointly bagged by BBC World Service Trust, Doordarshan and 
NACO, the Indian AIDS organisation for a vigorous and pioneering TV 
campaign on AIDS aimed at young people which challenged minds and changed 
behaviour.
