Abstract
"Almost fiftieth year of Munnu Bhai's literary and journalistic career. He had a long career and during this time he had been writing his columns daily. He had also written drama serials and documentary films and translated a number of famous freedom poets. However, his poetry pieces are contracted only to twenty-three poems, which means less than one poem in two years. Research reveals that he wrote a range of poetry but he published only twenty three selected poems. Indeed, to him, poetry is an attempt to open a door towards a specific imagination based on his own ideology. Munnu Bhai attributed his poetry book to the subaltern class bound to live in primitive age being only a few steps away from the modern era. He has used spinning wheel and grinding wheel as symbol of primitive times and compare it with motorway; a representation of modern world. Munnu Bhai criticized the uneven and unjustified development and declared it a fruit of capitalism. Its the imagination, vision and ideology amalgamated in the Punjab poetry of Munnu Bhai.
