3 Indian Photo journalists Win Pulitzer Award

3 photojournalists from Jammu and Kashmir are among the  2020 Pulitzer Prize winners. The awards were announced virtually last night owing to the coronavirus outbreak. All 3 winners belong to AP media firm.

AP photographers Channi Anand, Mukhtar Khan and Dar Yasin snaked around roadblocks, sometimes took cover in strangers’ homes and hid cameras in vegetable bags to capture images of protests, police and paramilitary action and daily life. The Pulitzer Prizes, the most prestigious awards in American journalism, have been handed out since 1917, when newspaper publisher Joseph Pulitzer established them in his will.
