i remember "अबिरल बग्दछ ईन्द्रबती" as well. Very touching and well written story showing the social status and rural life. I remember crying reading the story. Sad that we lost great writer like him. It is hard to see any stories these days or writers who writes with their passion.

I was thinking that if it was abraod, he would been so well known all around and gotton so much respect. But it was in Nepal where people hardly ever carded and even writer like Ramesh Bikal had to work in other jobs so that they can feed their family and add to the Nepali literature at the same time. Nepal and Nepalipan is still living because of selfless people like him...
