Jain won the prestigious Ramnath Goenka Award for "Journalist of the Year (2012)" for ''Truth vs Hype''. "In a world pre-occupied with breaking news and centred around studio rooms, Sreenivasan Jain’s show ''Truth vs Hype'' aimed at bringing stories straight from the field. From covering the aftermath of the revolution in Egypt to investigating the riots in Assam, from exposing the nexus between miners, real-estate players and politicians in Goa to a series on the coal scam, the show kept its focus on hard news", ''[[The Indian Express]]'' wrote. "From reporting from the grassroots, it evolved into an investigative show which had a combination of ground reports, investigation, and political and socio-economic issues," Jain says.<ref>[http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-others/ramnath-goenka-awards-the-storytellers/ Ramnath Goenka Awards: The Storytellers] ''The Indian Express'' 14 September 2014</ref><br />
