Kashmiri poet Rahi gets Jnanpith award [India]:
Cautioning against 'insufficient room for creativity' in any society, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Thursday said the Jnanpith
award to Rahman Rahi for his literary work in the Kashmiri language was a 'celebration of creativity'.
Conferring the prestigious literary award on the octogenarian Kashmiri poet for his entire oeuvre over the past six decades, Singh said that honouring a distinguished voice like Rahi was actually an acknowledgement of the 'power of the human mind and spirit'.
