In the vibrant city of New Delhi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on the eve of Friday, encouraged content creators to seamlessly incorporate the essence of ‘nari shakti’ into their creations. This momentous occasion unfolded at the prestigious Bharat Mandapam during the inaugural ‘National Creator Awards 2024’ event.
In a distinguished ceremony, the Prime Minister bestowed the National Creators Award across a diverse spectrum of 20 categories, each designed to acknowledge excellence and influence in varied domains such as storytelling, social change advocacy, environmental sustainability, education, and gaming, among others.
The award ceremony drew significant public involvement, with an impressive initial round yielding over 1.5 lakh nominations spanning the 20 distinct categories. Subsequently, during the voting phase, a substantial 10 lakh votes were cast in favor of digital creators across the award categories. The outcome was the selection of 23 winners, including three international creators, representing a broad array of creative accomplishments.
Upon receiving the inaugural National Creators Award in the ‘Swachhta Ambassador’ category, Malhar Kalambe conveyed his profound gratitude and expressed his eagerness to collaborate with the Prime Minister in the ‘safai abhiyan’ initiative.
In response, the Prime Minister reassured Kalambe, stating, “Har prakaar ki safai mein kaam aa sakta hai, iss chunaav mein bhi safai hone wali hai (In this polls too there is going to be a clean sweep).” He also lightened the atmosphere with a jovial remark, advising the awardee to ensure he maintains proper nourishment as he appeared visibly slender.
Furthermore, PM Modi presented the Most Creative Creator- Female award to Shraddha Jain (AiyyoShraddha) and the Most Creative Creator-Male award to RJ Raunac (Bauaa). This marked a celebration of their outstanding contributions to the realm of creativity.
