Journalist Dilli Ram Dulal Honoured with ‘Sewa Shri’ Award

Veteran journalist and editor Dilli Ram Dulal has been selected for the ‘Sewa Shri’ award by the Nepali Sahitya Parishad Sikkim, recognising his outstanding contribution to journalism, literature, and media advocacy in Sikkim.

Born on July 3, 1978, in Duga Samsing, Central Pendam, Dulal hails from Pakyong District and brings over 22 years of experience in both print and electronic media. He holds a Master’s degree in History and a Post Graduate Diploma in Journalism and Mass Communication, along with various professional certifications, including Book Publishing, Livelihood Promotion, Vani (Prasar Bharati), and Theatre from the National School of Drama.

He has been associated with major media outlets like Hamro Prajashakti, Hindusthan Samachar, and Samay Dainik. He currently contributes to Himale Bela Nepali Daily, PTC Gangtok, and All India Radio Gangtok.

Notably, he has been a strong voice in promoting organic farming journalism in the state. Within the media fraternity, his leadership at the Press Club of Sikkim—serving twice as Working President and now as General Secretary—has been instrumental in advocating for journalist welfare.

His literary work, including the acclaimed short story collection ‘Chuchedhunga’ (2012), reflects his creative depth. His achievements have previously earned him the Bharatiya Bhasha Samman (2023), Best Regional Editor Award (2019), and Ram Lal Smriti Puraskar (2015).

The ‘Sewa Shri’ award recognises individuals who have rendered exceptional service in their field and will be conferred during the 211th Bhanu Jayanti celebrations in Gangtok.
