Shyam Mohan K(born 19 November 1962) is an Indian Telugu journalist, cartoonist, documentary filmmaker, and author. He is best known for his acclaimed book Jana Gana Mana Telangana, a collection of his field reports that highlights various aspects of rural deprivation in Telangana.
He founded the Rural Media YouTube channel in 2015, a digital media platform dedicated to bringing the voices of India's most marginalized communities into the national spotlight.[1] [2]Through powerful ground-level storytelling across more than 120 remote villages, his work has exposed critical gaps in rural development and contributed to real-world change and policy responses.[3][4][5]
Shyam Mohan's father, originally from the Godavari coastal region of Andhra Pradesh, migrated in 1950 to the Kothagudem area in Telangana in search of employment in the Singareni coal mines.
Shyam Mohan began his primary education at Carmel School in Mandamarri, in present-day Adilabad district. He later earned a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree from Andhra University in 1995.
