Patradoot or The Messenger22 /Many
English version by
Ravindra K Kapoor
Originally written in Hindi by my
Late father Dr. Amar Nath Kapoor
DESCRIPTION OF MY BELOVED’S PLACE ALLAHABAD
The city of Allahabad is called a Holy shrine since ages,
Because of the mingling of three holy rivers Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswati,
Although Saraswati has vanished, it still remains a supreme shrine,
From time immemorial, which can not be determined in words, dear letter,.
The tradition of this prideful possession, dear letter,
Has been maintained by our ancestors since ages,
And many a great men have borne here, dear,
On the sacred land of Prayag or Allahabad, dear letter.

Patradoot in Hindi was originally written by my father late
Dr. Amar Nath Kapoor in 1932, when he was imprisoned
by the British, as he was fighting for India's freedom
under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi. After India’s
independence as a true follower of Gandhi Dr. Amar Nath
Kapoor left active politics and devoted rest of his life in
writing easy mass literature and wrote many Dramas,
Poetry books, epics. All his other literary
works were mainly written from 1955 to 1990.
He left this mortal world in 1994.
