Unsung winner                


When the International Policy Network (IPN), headquartered at London announced the first winners of its Frédéric Bastiat Prize for Journalism, it was surprised to find that the fact of an Indian journalist sharing the US$12,000 first prize did not make news back home.  The winner was a columnist for the Economic Times of India, Sauvik Chakraverti. Even ET did not consider this news worth carrying. Makes you wonder why.
