It is with reverence and profound respect that we recall the life and contribution of the iconic poet, journalist, freedom fighter, activist and social reformer, Subramania Bharati, whose life is like the message of the ancient sages of our great land.

Subramania Bharati was an Indian writer of the nationalist period and is regarded as the father of the modern Tamil literary style. Also known as the 'Mahakavi Bharathiyar', Bharati's strong sense of social justice drove him to fight for self-determination.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will release the compendium of complete works of great Tamil poet and freedom fighter Subramania Bharati on December 11 at his official residence here.
