About
19 in '19

To ring in the New Year, Deccan Herald is proud to shine the spotlight on 19 changemakers to watch in 2019, and beyond. Through their initiatives and innovations, these 19 -- either a Kannadiga, or someone who embodies the spirit of Karnataka -- are paving the way for a better tomorrow, across different spheres of work. The candidates have been chosen from across specialisms such as social work, sport, agri-tech, business, arts and culture, films and media, and governance.

 

     Join us in celebrating these 19 harbingers of change.
