Muktibodh, a lonely poet, who was avant-garde in his times
In a dim-lit private room in the AIIMS that Muktibodh lay dying after a prolonged illness on September 11, I was helplessly watching a major Hindi poet breathe his last before completing 47 years of age and seeing his first collection of poems published. It was tragic that even his classic, the long poem ‘Andhere Me’ was not yet published in ‘Kalpana’ which brought it out soon after. I was more than 23 years old and was teaching in a college in New Delhi.
I had known Muktibodh barely for 7 years, from to He had not made a success of anything in life; he wrote long poems in the days of short poems; he questioned his Marxist fellow writers; he was carving out a new aesthetics for Hindi poetry which had few admirers and his physical and economic circumstances were wholly inadequate. He was not drawn to success though he never wallowed in his failures. Endowed with a deeply interrogative mind, a robust critique of the civilisation in which he was born and placed, he saw with great agitation in his mind and fury in his soul, the freezing of conscience in independent democratic republic of India and decided to be the witnes

Muktibodh - the voice of courage and commitment
Gajanan Madhav Muktibodh ( – , centenary year ), arguably the greatest modern Hindi poet today, had already gained esoteric literary recognition and fame at the young age of 26 with the inclusion of his comparatively mature poems in Taar Saptak, the epoch-making anthology of new Hindi verse, selected and edited by the redoubtable pioneer Sachchidananda Hirananda Vatsyayan “Agyeya” in Of the seven poets included in the selection, Muktibodh’s was a totally different poetic persona.
As perhaps his unmistakably Maharashtrian name would betray, Muktibodh was a fourth-generation migrant to the Maratha-ruled Hindi-Malwi region of Gwalior, Central India. His indigent brahmin great-grandfather had left his native north-western Khandesh in search of a job and settled down in the erstwhile Scindia kingdom. The young Gajanan’s father was an honest police-officer and mother a god-fearing, reasonably-educated lady who would recommend and read the Hindi novelist Premchand to her son, would converse in Marathi at home but for all other purposes Hindi became his mother-tongue and lingua franca. Though a policeman, his father idolised both the na

His first book of poetry and his classic poem were published in , posthumously. His complete works appeared in in six volumes. A film relating to him, Satah se Uthata Aadmi, by Mani Kaul, was much admired at Cannes in A Muktibodh Fellowship for young writers and a Muktibodh Chair at the University of Sagar were established by the Madhya Pradesh government. Though a Marxist, Muktibodh came to be widely acknowledged as both a major poet and critic in Hindi even by non- or anti-Marxists.
Muktibodh wrote unusually long poems and used to despair about their length, reluctant to send them for publication to literary journals, some of which sought them eagerly. His poetry was complex as well. He was deeply interested in Gandhi, Marxism, Indian tradition, modernism, democratic politics and its tensions and contradictions in the Nehruvian era and their gradual fading. All the experiences of life, the insights gathered from a vast span of ideas, his own locale, circumstances, anxieties and disappointments made him a poet of both hope and horror. A poet of “the terrible news”, som
