Sambalpur (Odisha): Eminent Hindi poet Viswanath Prasad Tiwari would be honored with the prestigious ‘Gangadhar National Award’ during the 53rd Foundation Day celebrations of the Sambalpur University, Vice-Chancellor Deepak Behera said.
The award, carrying a cash prize of Rs 50,000, a shawl and citation, would be presented to Tiwari in January.
Instituted in memory of Odisha’s renowned bard Gangadhar Meher, the award is conferred on a poet of national repute every year since 1991, Behera said.
Tiwari, a former president of Sahitya Academy, has authored several anthologies. Notable among his creations are ‘Rachana ki sarkar’, ‘Kavita kya hai’, ‘Saath Chalte hue’ and Bistar Duniya le liye’.
