Hindi writer Vinod Kumar Shukla named for 59th Jnanpith Award; first from Chhattisgarh to be honoured
Saturday, 22 March 2025 Renowned Hindi writer Vinod Kumar Shukla has been honored with the 59th Jnanpith Award. At 88, he becomes the first author from Chhattisgarh to receive this prestigious accolade. Shukla's notable works include 'Naukar Ki Kameez' and 'Deewar Mein Ek Khirkee Rahati Thi'. The Jnanpith Award includes a Rs 11 lakh cash prize and a Saraswati bronze statue.
Prashant Kishor has launched a blistering attack on Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray after his controversial “slap those who don’t speak Marathi” remark. Calling Thackeray a “lumpen element” hiding in Mumbai while targeting poor migrants, Kishor slammed both BJP and Congress for their deafening silence on the issue. In a scathing rebuttal, Kishor reminded Thackeray that Maharashtra doesn’t belong to his father and warned against making heroes out of violent politics. Kishor also exposed the political convenience behind this rhetoric — just ahead of the BMC elections. He demanded Tejashwi Yadav and opposition leaders break their silence and stand up for Hindi-speaking migrants. The issue is rapidly snowb@lling into a national flashpoint on regional identity, governance, and electoral desperation.
