A Padma Bhushan awardee, Ram has achieved several accolades such as, Asian Investigative Journalist of the Year (1990) Award conferred by the Press Foundation of Asia at the "One Asia Assembly", Manila, 1990 for "the courage and diligence which inspired him and his newspaper to continue searching for the truth in the now famous Bofors Case, the disciplined application of his journalistic idealism and the impact of his revelations on the Indian political scene"; B.D. Goenka Award for Excellence in Journalism, 1989, shared with Chitra Subramaniam; National Citizen’s Award, 1995, New Delhi (with the citation reading "for his brave and fearless writings in the interest of the nation") and XLRI’s First JRD Tata Award for Business Ethics, awarded at this management institute’s 46th Annual Convocation at Jamshedpur on March 23, 2002 for "following rigorously the canons of journalism and ethics" and making "this ethics part of a corporate philosophy"^[1].Prior to his present position he was Associate Editor until 1991 and then Editor of Frontline and Sportstar between 1991 and 2003. As a student activist, he was the vice-president of the Students Federation of India (SFI) ^[2], (the students's wing of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) at the time of its formation in 1970. In September 2000, he wrote a cover story in Frontline, terming as "separatist, revanchist and backward-looking agenda", the 14th Dalai Lama's demand for recognition of Tibet's status by China^[3]though he does not mention any human rights violations committed by Chinese government in Tibet.

[edit] Neutrality

This article is decidedly not neutral, and therefore not in compliance with Wikipedia:neutral point of view. Some of this might even violate wikipedia:biographies of living persons, particularly the allegations of being in the pay of the People's Republic of China. It goes without saing that Wikipedia is not the place to list grievances with the subject matter. I will be trimming the parts that are not neutral; anyone is free to readd them if they are worded neutrally and are sourced withy neutral sources. Picaroon (t) 23:25, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
