Among them, the Dalits forced to occupy the lowest position. So they have to fight for their rights to survive in the society.

His works include a wide variety of  character  from  the  king  to  the  downtrodden.  His  pen  does  not recognize any barrier. It goes beyond the limitation of caste, creed, conventions and rituals. Through his writings, he has done his service for humanity.
