Gitanjali Literary Prize

The Gitanjali Literary Prize is a Franco-Indian literary award established in 2012. It was founded by the Mohsen Hachtroudi Foundation and CHG Earth Group (a hotel company in India). A Francophone author and an Indian author each receive a prize which includes a Gitanjali Medal, a literary sojourn of 15 days, and a translation of the work. The French book will be edited in India by an Indian editor and the book in any of the Indian languages will be published by a French editor. Any Francophone country is eligible as are many of the major Indian regional languages. The prize is open to all works and genres that correspond to the theme of the year. The prize is named for the collection of poems Gitanjali (1910) by Nobel-laureate Rabindranath Tagore.
