This collection Maa Patikhol is a selected Dalit poems of poet Pitambar Tarai. His poems encapsulate life-affirming values that spill beyond objective sympathy and humanism. His ideology is not in the first place, a set of doctrines; it signifies the way men live out their roles in class and casteist society. Pitambar believes that all poetry springs from an ideological conception of the world and there is no such thing as a work of art entirely devoid of ideological content. This ideological base makes the poems of Maa Patikhol endearing, lovable, attracting and ennobling with his comic, symbolic, satirical and ironical voices.
