During his address, Dr Chandrachud not only praised Dynamite News for its journalism but also shared thoughtful insights on India’s evolving social landscape, especially highlighting the role of women and the strength of youth in nation-building.

As a Keynote Speaker of the event, Dr Chandrachud remarked, “Dynamite News has given journalism a new direction, one grounded in honesty, truth, accuracy, and fairness. It is not merely a news channel but a representation of that stream of journalism which reflects social transformation in our country.”
He further observed that in today’s time, when negativity dominates social media, Dynamite News has set an example by practicing positive and responsible journalism. “Reporting that focuses on national development can also succeed. Dynamite News is living proof of that,” he said.
Highlighting India’s demographic strength, Dr Chandrachud noted that nearly 85% of the country’s population is under the age of 49, and around 250 million children are below the age of 10. He said this reflects the boundless youth energy that defines India today. He also commended the fact that all three award recipients were women, a symbol of a changing and progressive India.
He added, “Today, women are not only doctors but neurosurgeons, cardiac surgeons, warship commanders, and judges of the Supreme Court. This is the face of a transforming India.”

The former Chief Justice of India also shared his thoughts on the foundational values of journalism. He emphasized that the core purpose of journalism must always be to uphold the truth. Warning against superficial reporting, he said, “Oversimplification of facts can distort justice. Journalists must report with context and responsibility so that the public receives factual and meaningful information.”
