India's most expensive literary award — the JCB Prize for Literature — is officially discontinued; everything to know

In a move that has left the Indian literary world stunned, the JCB Prize for Literature — once the country's most lucrative book award — has officially been discontinued. The ₹ 25-lakh award, which honoured the best work of fiction by an Indian author each year, has been shut down, with no future editions planned. JCB Prize for Literature The confirmation came on June 21 from Mita Kapur, Literary Director of the JCB Prize, who said, 'The prize has been shut down. I am not going to deny something that is evident. But for everything else, 'no comment'.' The last winner of the award was Upamanyu Chatterjee in 2024, for his novel Lorenzo Searches for the Meaning of Life. While the reasons for the shutdown remain unclear, the decision closely follows the cancellation of the JCB Literature Foundation's licence. A notice dated March 12 on the award's official website stated that the foundation had applied to the Registrar of Companies, Delhi & Haryana, seeking to revoke its Section 8(5) license under the Companies Act, 2013. It added that the organisation would now be reclassified as a 'Private Limited' company, no longer functioning as a foundation. The award was given by the 'foundation', which was established to promote the 'art of literature in India'. About the JCB Prize for Literature Founded in 2018, the JCB Prize was widely celebrated not just for its generous cash prize, but for its commitment to promoting Indian fiction across languages. Five out of the seven winning books were translations — a reflection of the prize's dedication to linguistic diversity. Landmark winners included Jasmine Days by Benyamin (translated from Malayalam), Delhi: A Soliloquy by M Mukundan (Malayalam), The Paradise of Food by Khalid Jawed (Urdu), and Fire Bird by Perumal Murugan (Tamil). Each shortlisted author received ₹ 1 lakh, and in the case of a translated work, the translator was awarded ₹ 50,000. When a translated novel won, the translator took home an impressive ₹ 10 lakh alongside the author's ₹ 25 lakh. As tributes pour in from authors, publishers, and translators across the country, the loss of the JCB Prize marks the end of a short yet impactful chapter in Indian literary history.

Bike taxi riders rally at Vidhana Soudha, urge Karnataka govt to lift ban and frame policy

Several bike taxi riders from across Karnataka took out a bike rally to Vidhana Soudha in Bengaluru on Saturday, urging the state government to lift the ban on bike taxis and introduce a regulatory framework to govern their operations. Riders from cities including Mysuru, Mandya, Hassan, Davangere, Tumakuru, Ramanagara, Shivamogga, and Kanakapura participated in the rally. The protest comes in the wake of the Karnataka High Court's order directing bike taxi operators to suspend operations pending the formation of rules under Section 93 of the Motor Vehicles Act by the government. Bike taxi operators claimed that the ban has impacted the livelihoods of more than six lakh people across the state. Many participants claimed the ban has pushed them into financial distress, with no alternative source of income and increasing pressure to meet basic household needs such as groceries, rent, and school fees. 'Before the ban, I could earn enough to keep my family going. Now there's no money coming in,' said Ramesh, a rider from Tumakuru. Ravi, a rider from Mysuru, added, 'This ban hasn't just taken away our jobs – it's taken away our dignity.' Apart from riders, regular commuters have also been affected by the absence of bike taxis, with concerns raised over increased fares and limited transport options. Protesters highlighted that bike taxis had provided a quick and affordable last-mile connectivity option in urban and semi-urban areas. Riders have requested the state government to formulate a bike taxi policy that 'addresses safety, registration, and operational guidelines – similar to what is already in place in 19 other Indian states.' Meanwhile, Transport Minister Ramalinga Reddy has emphasised that the state government is not inclined towards drafting a bike taxi policy and that whiteboard two-wheelers cannot be used for commercial purposes. Officials of the road transport offices across Bengaluru also seized 103 bike taxis earlier this week for operating despite the Karnataka High Court's directive to suspend operations in the state. The transport department officials have booked the riders of the 103 bike taxis across RTO divisions in the central, west, south, north, east, Electronic City, and KR Puram, among others.
