A warm hand shake for Mohan Dattatraya Shingne National Awardee, from Governor of Tamil Nadu
Mohan Dattaraye Shingne:On hearing that I had been given the National Award for a moment I was shivering and then broke into tears. The Award has definitely built my confidence. To be chosen to stand among art practitioners from all over India is an intuitive satisfaction. The art is my language and to know that I can now share it with others is very satisfying.
