  • Abstract:
  • Poverty is a socio-economic phenomenon that persists through the ages. In ancient Sanskrit literature, the subject of poverty is a rare thing. For the poets who made a living by praising kings, it was almost impossible to provide an accurate description of the economic landscape while going against the king. Amidst the grandeur of monarchy, the harsh reality sometimes emerges as a protest from the unwary pen of the poet.
