Through an outstanding ceremony Dr. Sweta Jha, representative of Asia Book of Records handed over the award to the founder and CEO of Positive Barta Malay Pit. In her speech she said that the concept of Positive Barta is unprecedented. There is no such concept in the entire Asia pacific region. For this uniqueness they are conferring this award as the mark of recognition of its uniqueness.
To commemorate this momentous occasion, Positive Barta also organized a national awareness program titled “Positive Barta: A Movement of Positivity and Empowerment.” The program served as a confluence of minds and hearts, bringing together thought leaders from diverse fields including education, healthcare, civil society, women entrepreneurs and from several other parts of the society.
In a world often inundated with negativity, fear, and division, Positive Barta dared to carve a different path. The initiative began with one individual’s profound belief that good news truly matters, that empowerment must originate at the grassroots, and that positive stories deserve to be amplified.
Receiving the award, Malay Pit said, “I’m grateful but I’m more convinced than ever that the best stories are unfinished. Awards remind us we’re on the right road; they don’t mean we’ve arrived. For the team behind Positive Barta and the thousands of lives it touches – this recognition from the Asia Book of Records is not just a reward. It is a reminder that when purpose drives action, records follow naturally.”
He recalled the tireless effort made by entire Positive Barta team, under his flagship he ended with a simple invitation: “Carry one positive story home today. We believe that even a single story of hope can change a life. Imagine what millions can do.”
