Sould it not be Gyanpith award. please move the page. Vivek 16:57, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
The lead sentence of the article imputes to the nation (and its people) an award that belongs to a private organization, no matter how prestigious the award might be. Furthermore, it continues to display (as a result of edit-warring) the Indian honours and decoration template, thereby fudging the distinction between a nation's award and an award in the nation. All the other awards mentioned in that template are official awards of the Republic of India, which the Jnanpith Award is not. Its inclusion in that template is the equivalent of including the Booker Prize or the Whitbread Prize on the same template with the Victoria Cross. It is grossly inaccurate.

Added Table to Awardees section, i request WikiEditors to add more information on respected Award holders work. NAvin Shetty Brahmavar 09:06, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
Please read your own reference completely. Felowsip is heighest of "IT'S" awards (Sahithya Academy's) not India's. Whether it is given by a begger or the president it is undisputedly the highest honour. http://www.hindu.com/2007/01/26/stories/2007012615980300.htm. ~rAGU ( talk)

Why is the state mentioned in the recipient's table? And how does it matter? This award is not given for coming from a certain state. Language of the work matters. I am removing that. If you object, speak here. §§ AnimeshKulkarni ( talk) 15:20, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

First sentence of paragraph 2 includes the words "a cash prize of ₹1 lakh (equivalent to ₹48 lakh or US$73,000" and the first sentence of paragraph 3 includes the words "the cash prize has been revised to ₹11 lakh (equivalent to ₹12 lakh or US$18,000". How is one lakh of rupees equivalent to 48 lakh of rupees or 11 lakh of rupees equivalent to 12 lakh of rupees? This is strictly India, so it's all Indian rupees, so what's the deal? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Curmudgeonly Pedant ( talk • contribs) 02:01, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
