Today is the 136th Birth Anniversary of Munshi Premchand. Google Search has
put a doodle of Munshiji!!

Every language teacher (every teacher) MUST read Premchand's short stories,
which are translated into English also.  His stories touch your soul

Kannada (if you have any links of Kannada translations, please mail to the
forum, I will upload on KOER)

If you have not read any Premchand story before, then please do read any
one ... *Idgah* is amongst my favourites

   1. Munshi Premchand *Idgah*
   


>From wikipedia-

Premchand (Hindi :
प्रेमचंद, Urdu : پریمچںد), whose
original name was *Dhanpat Rai Srivastava*, was born on 31 July 1880, in
village *Lamahi* near Varanasi ,
where his father was a clerk in the post office. Premchand's parents died
young - his mother when he was seven and his father while he was fourteen
and still a student. Premchand was left responsible for his stepmother and
step-siblings.

Early in life, Premchand faced immense poverty. He earned five rupees a
month tutoring a lawyer's child. He was married at the early age of fifteen
but that marriage failed, later he married again, to Shivrani Devi, a
balavidhava (child widow), and had several children. She supported him
through life struggles.

Premchand passed his matriculation
 exam with great effort
in 1898, and in 1899 he took up school-teaching job, with a monthly salary
of eighteen rupees. In 1919 he passed his B.A. with English, Persian and
History.

Later, Premchand worked as the deputy sub-inspector of schools.

Premchand lived a life of financial struggle. Once he took a loan of
two-and-a-half rupees  to buy some
clothes. He had to struggle for three years to pay it back.

When asked why he does not write anything about himself, he answered: "What
greatness do I have that I have to tell anyone about? I live just like
millions of people in this country; I am ordinary. My life is also
ordinary. I am a poor school teacher
 suffering family travails.
During my whole lifetime, I have been grinding away with the hope that I
could become free of my sufferings. But I have not been able to free myself
from suffering. What is so special about this life that needs to be told to
anybody?".

Guru
