The article includes a translation of Laxmiprasad Devkota's "Ashadhko pandhra". The essay "Ashadko pandhra" (The Fifteenth of [the Month of] Ashad) belongs to the poet Laxmiprasad's early writing. It was published in the literary journal Sarada, which was published in Kathmandu and which became "a landmark in the history of Nepali literature." The essay is believed to be the first prose writing and the first published essay by Devkota. (Rajeev Ranjan Singh 2007-02-22)
