A freelance Indian journalist, who was recently attacked and harassed in Chhattisgarh, has won the prestigious 2016 International Press Freedom Award, it was announced today.
"Malini Subramaniam, a freelance journalist from India, was attacked and harassed after she reported on human rights abuses and the conflict between Maoist groups and state forces in Chhattisgarh.
