Litterateur Prof Dr Ram Prasad Gyawali recalled that the Mahakavi had expressed his views against the oppression on the Dalits, the indigenous nationalities and women. He urged the literati to be serious towards the nation and humanity. Laxmi Prasad Devkota was born on November 12, 1909 in Dilli Bazar, Kathmandu. He died on September 14, 1959.
