About the Book: Munshi Premchand, born on July 31, 1880, is one of the most influential Indian writers of the early 20th century. Writing during the peak of the Indian Independence movement, he used literature as a tool to support freedom and social reform. His 1910 collection Soz-e-Watan was banned by the British for its revolutionary message. Known for iconic works like Sevasadan, Rangbhoomi, Nirmala, Gaban, Karmabhoomi, and Godaan, Premchand highlighted issues like poverty, caste, and gender injustice. A pioneer of Hindi and Urdu literature, his legacy continues through powerful social realism and human-centered storytelling.
