“The one who takes photographs and calls himself a photographer cannot limit himself to a genre, time zone or geography,” said Rai, also emphasizing on the need of every photographer or photojournalist to be spirituality connected while on the job.
During the event, Ambassador of India to Nepal, Sri Jayant Prasad also shared a few words about the invaluable contribution of Rai towards the Indian media, and to the world at large.
Rai, who is also the recipient of the coveted Padmashri award, Raghu Rai, was invited to Kathmandu by the Embassy of India and B.P. Koirala India-Nepal Foundation to chair the jury of Nepal Photo-Contest, an annual photo competition organized by Photojournalist Club of Nepal.
