H.P. SHASTRI AWARD PROGRAM
In 2011, the foundation started the H.P. Shastri Award Program. These awards are presented to poets, writers, and other artists on an annual basis in recognition of excellence in the area of poetry and literature and to recognize those artists' efforts to contribute to Hindi and Sanskrit poetry and literature. They are presented to the winners at the Annual Kavi Sammelan program. Every year since 2011, the H.P. Shastri Charitable Foundation has presented these awards in honor of H.P. Shastri. The award is intended to be limited to residents of the Ghaziabad, India area or to presenters at the Annual Kavi Sammellan (a literary and cultural celebration held in Ghaziabad, India annually in honor of H. P. Shastri) but anyone who has contributed to Hindi poetry and literature during the year and who has been recommended by Ghaziabad scholars is considered.
​
Award recipients receive a plaque and small monetary award to recognize the artist's achievement and assist the artist in future works. Recipients are chosen by the Foundation based on the recommendations from scholars in Ghaziabad, India from the list of candidates.
​
The H.P. Shastri Award Program furthers the charitable goals of the foundation by encouraging innovation, artistic works and appreciation of Hindi poetry and literature.
