Mangalore: Valedictory program of Journalism Course-2013 organized by Sandesha Foundation for Culture and Education and Canara Communication Centre was held at Sandesha premises here on Thursday August 22.

The function was presided over by Bishop of Bellary, Dr Henry D’Souza.

He in his presidential address said that Journalists should support the process of building harmony in society and among communities. In addition, the media should contribute to societal change and transformation. These are its primary responsibilities.

The journalist must have an inner urge to make a positive difference. She/he must be sensitive towards any incident of conflict, violence and so on. Only these qualities help to communicate and write, he added.

Chief guest of the function, MLA JR Lobo spoke on the importance of following ethics while carrying out journalistic duties. “If a good journalist can build society, a bad journalist can equally break it. Besides, the reports in publications are recorded and documented to discuss in the Assembly,” he said.

Certificates were given to all the participants. 

President of Dakshina Kannada Working Journalists Union P B Harish Rai, Senior journalist Manohar Prasad, Director of Canara communication center Fr Richard D’Souza were present at the occasion.
