R. V. Pandit

Indian poet (1916/1917–1990) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Raghunath Vishnu Pandit (1916 or 1917-1990)[1] was an Indian poet. He is best known and most celebrated for his vast poetic production in Konkani. Pandit also produced a significant body of work in Portuguese after the annexation of Goa in 1961, and also wrote in Marathi. Much of his output was written in a neo-realist style demonstrating a marked concern for the downtrodden sections of Goan society. Among his most noted achievements are the publication of five books of poetry on one day (26 January 1963) and a prize from the Sahitya Akademi for his 1975 Dariā Gāzotā.[2]
