About Bhartiya Jnanpeeth Awards

The Jnanpith Award is an Indian artistic honor introduced every year by the Bharatiya Jnanpith to a creator for their "remarkable commitment towards writing". Initiated in 1961, the honor is presented just on Indian essayists writing in Indian dialects incorporated into the Eighth Schedule to the Constitution of India and English, with no after death conferral. From 1965 till 1981, the honor was given to the creators for their "most extraordinary work" and comprised of a reference plaque, a money prize of ₹1 lakh, and a bronze imitation of Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of learning and knowledge.

The main beneficiary of the honor was the Malayalam essayist G. Sankara Kurup who got the honor in 1965 for his gathering of lyrics, Odakkuzhal The Bamboo Flute, distributed in 1950. The guidelines were amended in ensuing years to consider just works distributed amid the former twenty years, barring the year for which the honor was to be given and the money prize was expanded to ₹1.5 lakh from 1981.

Starting at 2015, the money prize has been reconsidered to ₹11 lakh and out of twenty-three qualified dialects the honor has been introduced for works in fifteen dialects: Hindi eleven, Kannada eight, Bengali six, Malayalam five, Gujarati, Marathi, Odia, and Urdu four every, Telugu three, Assamese, Punjabi, and Tamil two every, Kashmiri, Konkani, and Sanskrit one each.
