He was an engineering graduate from what is now known as IIT Roorkee, and a civil engineering graduate from Uni of Michigan, Ann Arbor. An idealist, he established Preet Nagar township which was equidistant from Amritsar and Lahore, and where he invited prominent writers and artists like Balraj Sahni, Nanak Singh, Sobha Singh, Faiz, Sahir, Ashq, Gargi, and Duggal to come and live and write. Preet Nagar township had a community kitchen, an activity based school, a park, and spaces for physical, artistic, political, economic activities. Preet Nagar suffered the vagaries of the winds of 1947 when most of its inhabitants migrated to Delhi and other cities. His own family returned to live there with a few other families.In 1933, he founded a journal called Preet Lari which though struggling, is still being published. The title of this journal gave him the suffix of Preet Lari.Gurbaksh Singh wrote more than fifty books. (details from Wikipedia)

A poor priest receives the gift of a few coins and shells from a king. What happens to them when his wife angrily throws them in the backyard?

About the Author:

Dr. Sohinder Singh Wanjara Bedi (1924–2001) whose folk tale collection - Bata'n Mudh Kadeem Dian has this folk tale, was one of the most respected voices in Punjabi literature, especially known for his unmatched work in preserving and popularizing Punjabi folk tales. Born in the village Dhamial in Sialkot district (now in Pakistan), he migrated to India during Partition and dedicated his life to literature and education.

Dr. Bedi began collecting folk stories at a young age, and over the decades, he published more than 80 books, including children’s tales, short stories, literary criticism, and folklore studies. His most iconic contribution is the eight-volume “Punjabi Lokdhara Vishav Kosh”, a global encyclopedia of Punjabi folklore that took him over 45 years to compile — a rare and monumental feat.

He served as a professor at Dayal Singh College, Delhi, and was deeply committed to using literature to preserve Punjabi cultural heritage. In 1988, he received the Sahitya Akademi Award for his short story collection "Galīeṅ Chikkar Dūrī Ghar".

Dr. Bedi believed in the power of simple storytelling to teach deep values. He passed away in 2001, but his work continues to inspire generations of readers, writers, and educators.
