At the ceremony “Mati Ri Mahak” organized in metropolitan Kolkata, the Heritage Award sponsored this year by industrialist Arun Agarwal will be presented to the young spontaneous poet Shri Giridhari Dan Beethu from the historic village Singhsthal (Seenthal) of Bikaner.
The award will be conferred on 19 December during the event “Mati Ri Mahak” to be held in Kolkata.

Sharing this information jointly, industrialist Arun Agarwal and Anju Sethia of the Bharat Jain Mahila Mandal stated that, like every year, this year’s program too will be organized in a dignified manner on the theme of preservation and promotion of Rajasthani literature and culture.

The chief guest of this grand ceremony will be the well-known film actress Roopa Ganguly (Draupadi from Mahabharata). The event will be presided over by Shri Ratan Shah, President of the Rajasthani Pracharini Sabha.
Distinguished guests on the stage will include noted industrialist and Ganga Mission’s Seth Shri Prahlad Rai Goenka, Bharat Jain Mahila Mandal’s Anju Sethia, and Hinglaj Dan Ratnoo, Assistant Director, Department of Information and Public Relations, Government of Rajasthan.

Agarwal and Sethia further informed that each year, a literary figure or cultural devotee is chosen whose work reflects dedicated, silent service and who has so far remained deprived of such recognition. The objective of selecting such committed talent is to encourage the younger generation.

As part of the award, the recipient will be honored with ₹11,000 in cash, a coconut, shawl, certificate of appreciation, memento, traditional attire, and other felicitation items.
