Abstract

In Assam, Lakshminath Bezbaruah is referred to as Sahityarathi. He was a well-known Assamese literary author. His literary works include novels, short stories, poems, articles, romantic belles letters, plays, editing of Jonaki magazine, and more. The author of Jonaki, who starts the volume of current Assamese literature, is Laxminath Bezbaruah. At this time, Chandra Kumar Agarwala led the introduction of the well-known Assamese monthly Jonaki. For at least fifty years, his works dominated the Assamese literary scene. Throughout his life, Bezbarua dedicated himself to bringing Assamese literature's once-lost brilliance back to life in all genres. Back then, Assamese was not included in the state's curriculum or upper education courses. His goal was to popularize Assamese literature across India, not only in the state of Assam. Bezbarua wrote and created art with the intention of advancing Assamese society overall.
