In recognition of his immense contributions, he was honored with the Padma Shri in 2024, one of India’s highest civilian awards. The felicitation ceremony, attended by more than 1,000 people including scholars, cultural dignitaries, and students, marked a proud moment for both Madhya Pradesh and the Indian literary community.
