Lucknow,

19 May (HS): Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath routinely pays

respect to the literary titan, describing him as a visionary who raised public

awareness by presenting Indian heritage, history, and philosophy in a modern

context. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath frequently honors Acharya

Hazari Prasad Dwivedi, a respected Hindi litterateur and scholar, on his birth

and death anniversaries. CM Yogi regularly lauds Dwivedi's scholarly

contributions to Hindi literature and Indian philosophy.

In

a post on X, UP CM remarked, “In the beacon of Hindi literature, the renowned

litterateur, 'Padma Bhushan' Acharya Hazari Prasad Dwivedi, through his

writings, presented Indian tradition, history, and philosophy from a modern

perspective, awakening the public consciousness. His creative works connect us

to intellect, sensitivity, and cultural awareness. On the death anniversary of

such a visionary sage, humble homage.”

Acharya

Hazari Prasad Dwivedi (1907–1979) was a famous writer, critic, and historian of

Hindi literature. He made major scholarly contributions to Indian culture

through his research on medieval religious movements, notably his highly

praised book on the history and ideas of the Nath Sampradaya (a group closely

related to Yogi Adityanath's Gorakhnath Math).
