Premchand's 125th birthday celebrations

The magician of pen, Munshi Premchand's 125th birthday प्रेमचंद falls on 31st July this year. His writings are the mirror of contemporary literature as well as the society. Most of my readers might have read his one or more writings. I think on the net we too can celebrate his birthday. An initiative by me in Hindi blog.

Update: Today is 31st July, hence a birthday greeting card for Munshi Premchand.
Don't miss the birthday party there.

I've not read much of Munshi Prem Chand but few stories I read. I would love to read his Godan etc. Still lots to read :)

Silky ji,
I shall be posting the links available on the writings on Munshi Premchand for my readers.

But my efforts will be useful only if every one can read Hindi on net as Manish ji is able to read now.

Maine padha, Maine padha!

Munshi Premchanda's work would outlive centuries. No other writer, perhaps, has better depicted the true picture of the real India at that time. The India, that lived in villages!

Silky ji,
If you mean that you are unable to read Hindi then do click the "Cann't see Hindi icon", that shall help you.

Manish ji,
Permit me to strengthen your "perhap" to "certainly".

Moreover, if you are using windows 98 and internet explorer 5, you have to change the settings for viewing Hindi text.
