Rajesh Pal’s poetry collection “Azadi Mein Azadi” was praised during a critical discussion held at Doon Library and Research Centre (DLRC) on Saturday. Speaking on the occasion, prominent Dalit literature figure N Singh emphasised that Pal is a powerful and significant poet of his generation. He directly confronts the truth of his time and presents his arguments logically. Poet and editor Rajesh Saklani stated that reading the collection of poems reinforces the belief that Dalit literature should be considered mainstream literature. He emphasised the need for a significant effort to dismantle social and political inertia. His poems are deep and inspiring, fostering a sense of struggle and social consciousness in the reader, he added.
