Public officeAfter India became independent in 1947, he was also made an honorary member of theRajya Sabha, where he used poetry to put his opinions before the other members. He remained a member of the Rajya Sabha till his death in 1964. He was awarded Padma Bhushan in 1954.
Creative styleHis works are based along patriotic themes, among others poets such asRamdhari Singh DinkarandMakhanlal Chaturvedi. His poetry is characterized by non-rhyming couplets in Khadi Boli. Although the couplet structure is non rhyming, the prominent use ofalliterationslends arhythmic backdrop due to the rhythmic alterationsbetween vowels and consonants. He was a religious man, and this can be seen in his works.
