New leaders
Your annual issue was extremely interesting. I particularly liked, ‘New leaders to look out for.’ What was noteworthy is that all the leaders your magazine chose are working in important development areas. But I would like to see more women leaders profiled. You should report more on health initiatives for women and children.

I am simply overjoyed. Out of 19 persons who have been listed as new leaders, I happen to know seven closely. Shivaram and Anitha, Ashok Tungal, Shivaji Kaganikar, Shree Padre, Shivananda Kalave and G Krishna Prasad are all very focussed. They work their hearts out and have never run after name and fame. Great to see their efforts recognised.

The write-up on media mentors Dr Shivaram and Anitha Pailoor is an inspiring one that warms the heart of all those who work for social change without fanfare. Good job.

Dr Shivaram and Anitha are doing a splendid job in farming and journalism without any expectations from anyone. They are committed and dedicated to their work.

SEZ controversy
Now that the government has taken the decision to implement SEZs, it should ensure that farmers, fisher folk, nomads and landless labour get compensation for loss of lands and livelihood. Every effort should be made to improve their lives. Otherwise, all we will have is an economy of rajas and slaves. We need strong groups who can ensure that rural folk get their due and join the middle class.
