Translation: 
JRL is one of the foremost names in the 100 year history of Popular Science writing in kannada. He has written on a variety of subjects. However difficult the subject matter is, he has the ability to convey it in a very simple style. For the new writers in Kannada, JRLs writings are like a handguide. Many of his works have received awards.
 
As one of the founders of Karnataka Rajya Vijnana Parishat, JRL has worked hard to build the organisation to an international stature. You have spread the idea that Science has the ability to change the value system of individuals and society.
