Maithili Sharan Gupt[1] (3 August 1886 – 12 December 1964[2]) was one of the most important modern Hindi poets.[3] He is considered one among the pioneers of Khari Boli (plain dialect) poetry and wrote in Khari Boli dialect,[2] at a time when most Hindi poets favoured the use of Braj Bhasha dialect.[4] He was a recipient of the third highest (then second highest) Indian civilian honour of Padma Bhushan.[5] For his book Bharat-Bharati (1912),[6] widely quoted during India's freedom struggle, he was given the title of Rashtra Kavi[2] by Mahatma Gandhi.
