Biography


Hari Bhakta Katuwal was born on 2 July 1935 in Dibrugarh, Assam.[1] In India, he used to write poems under the name Prabasi (transl. Non-resident). He moved to Kathmandu to pursue his writing career after being invited by King Mahendra.[1][2]

Noted for his writing style, he published many poems including Bhitri Manche Bolna Khojch, Yo Zindagi Khai Ke Zindagi, and Samjhana.[1][3] He was also addicted to drinking.[4]

He also wrote lyrics that have been sung by Narayan Gopal, Amber Gurung, and Aruna Lama.[5]

Katuwal died on 10 September 1980 in Assam.[1][6] He was cremated at the banks of the Brahmaputra River in a Hindu ceremony.[4]

In 2015, documentary Ani Hari Bhakta Farkiyenan about Katuwal's life was released.[7] In 2017, a play was staged at the Sarwanam Theatre based on his poems for his 82nd birth anniversary.[8] In 2021, a life-size statue of Katuwal was erected at Jaigaon near the Indo-Bhutan border.[9]
