Today is Dr. DVG’s 121st birthday. Dr. DVG’s books have inspired and influenced a lot in my life.
His is a multifaceted personality. He is known for his integrity. Even though he had good contacts like Sir M Visvesvaraya, Diwan Mirza Ismail etc., he never misued his privilege for his personal benefit.
He is one of the doyens of kannada literature. His books Mankuthimmana Kagga and Maraluminiyana Kaggas are known for their insight. A lot of people daily study these verses as a ritual as they give solace to the mind.
His other books such as Jnapakachitrashale in 8 volumes narrate the life of people over a period of nearly sixty years in erstwhile Mysore state during 1900s
