HariDutt Bhatt Shailesh -the face of Garhwal

It is painfully shocking to learn that Dr Hari Dutt Bhatt Shailesh is no more.It is great loss to the literary world.He was one of the tallest literary figures of Uttarakhand .He was eminent poet,story writer,lexicographer,linguist and prolofic author of many books besides being a celebrated teacher at Doon School.A through gentleman at heart and most humble at his demeanor he was very active in creative field and social concerns till the last moment of his life.He was the first to bringout Garhwali Shabdkosh and traced the philological history of garhwali phrases.His contribution to the Hindi and Garhwali literature will be remembered by posterity.

  1. He who is satisfied with gain which comes of its own accord, who is free from duality and does not envy, who is steady both in success and failure, is never entangled, although performing actions.
