KLN Award and Google: A BIG THANK YOU to ALL my Friends
KLN Award and Google: A BIG THANK YOU to ALL my Friends
Upon receipt of
information about my getting the KLN Award for the services to the elderly, I
got drenched fully in a rain of congratulatory messages from various quarters –
sss-global, ex-idl, Bhavana-lucknow, aisccon, ISU3A, Lis-Forum and other
groups; from my friends in FaceBook, Twitter, GPlus, LinkedIn etc. A very large
number of my friends have been very generous in inflating my Ego. Frankly, much
against my nature, I was in Cloud Nine, hesitating to climb down! As it is
difficult, if not impossible, for me to individually acknowledge each well
wisher, I am choosing to send a million thanks via this missive. I have made a
table of all those to whom thanks are due. If I have missed some, it is just a
slip, pardon me.

Many friends have
been asking for details about KLN Award. Complete details are given in http://kanuri.org/ The KLN Award seeks to recognize individuals, social
catalysts, who have advanced our understanding and awareness of issues
and challenges affecting elders, thereby enhancing the dignity, care,
and well-being of elders in a changing society. The KLN Award will be
given up to four times a year. The awardee receives a certificate and a cheque
for Rs. 200,000. The name of the first awardee (Dr Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy)
was announced on June 5th 2014. It will be given on June 15, the
United Nations’ World Elder Abuse Awareness day. The website answers all doubts through an FAQ.
This award is not based on any application from individuals and subsequent
selection. You cannot send nominations or recommendations. The KLN Award Committee searches, sifts, selects and reaches out to the
suitable candidate concerned on its own.
All along I have
taken pride in searching Google for answering my own and others queries and consider
myself as a semi-expert. Deccan
Chronicle called me The Internet Hunter sometime ago. For a change, KLN Award Committee googled
and reached me as a suitable person for the award!. Sri Manohar Kanuri of kanuri.org met me personally some months ago and thereafter we exchanged many email messages
and telephone calls. Therefore I am
happy about the role played by Google and the Internet in general – I am
pleased that I have left enough footprints to trace me down.

KLN Award: The first KLN Award goes to: Dr. Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy !
KLN Award
The first KLN Award goes to: Dr. Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy !
Dr. Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy, a septuagenarian from Hyderabad, is a PhD in Library Science.
During his pre-retirement career, he set up and ran libraries and Information centers for academic,
research, and industrial organizations such as the Technical Teachers’ Training Institute, Madras,
Informatics India, Bangalore, and Indian Detonators, Satyam Computers, and ICICI Knowledge Park,
Hyderabad.
Since retirement, Dr. Vyasamoorthy has been involved with Aging and Aged Care issues, and
contributed extensively to the literature of social gerontology. He started and moderates a Yahoo group
for senior citizens, SSS Global, that is currently ranked 1st in over 26,000 groups focused on seniors.
Dr. Vyasamoorthy maintains multiple blogs, moderates multiple discussion groups, and edits two
online dailies. He has written six e-books and numerous articles and papers. Dr. Vyasamoorthy
maintains the websites for the Association of Senior Citizens of Hyderabad and All India Senior
Citizens Confederation, where he also serves as an officer. Dr. Vyasamoorthy’s services to senior
citizens were recognized by citation by the Government of Andhra Pradesh in 2007, and he was
awarded the Silver Innings-iCONGO Karmaveer Chakra 2011 for Exceptional Work for Senior
Citizens.
Dr. Vyasamoorthy currently serves as President, Society for Serving Seniors, Secunderabad;
President, Association of Senior Citizens, Hyderabad; Joint Secretary, Andhra Pradesh Senior
Citizens Confederation; Joint Secretary. All India Senior Citizens Confederation; and Vice President,
Senior Citizens Forum, Secunderabad. Dr. Vyasamoorthy has in the past served as Joint Secretary,
Confederation of Cantonment Resident Welfare Associations in Secunderabad (CCRWAS) and as
Vice President, Federation of Andhra Pradesh Senior Citizens Organizations. He is a member of the
Alzheimer’s and Related Disorders Society of India (ARDSI), Hyderabad Deccan chapter, and the
University of the Third Age (U3A India),. He also volunteers at Aasara, the Greater Hyderabad
Municipal Corporation’s outreach effort to senior citizens.
Dr. Vyasamoorthy retired around the same time as the internet was beginning to take off in the late
1990s, Google was in its infancy in a garage in California, and nobody had heard of “social media”
since it had yet to take birth. Dr. Vyasamoorthy used all three, as they emerged, in effective ways to
empower himself. He kept pace with technology, and through technology, with the forces changing the
society around him. As an elder care activist, he used his skills, training, knowledge and expertise in
technology to, in turn, disseminate to seniors, ideas, trends, and challenges that they were likely to
encounter in a changing world. For his role as a social catalyst in the area of elder empowerment and
elder care, we are pleased to award him the first KLN Award.
