On July 31, we celebrate the birth anniversary of Munshi Premchand, a key figure in Indian literature renowned for his realistic portrayal of colonial India. Born on July 31, 1880, Premchand, initially known as Nawab Rai, adopted his pen name after facing British criticism. His notable works, including Sevasadan, Karmabhoomi, Gaban, Godaan, and Nirmala, address social issues and continue to impact readers today.
