The poetry collection was an apt tribute to the great poet whose words and thoughts encompass time and distance and has deep connection with the philosophy that Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore had expressed in his writings.

Assembly speaker Metbah Lyngdoh spoke about the poet and philosopher who gave Khasi language a unique dimension in the modern literary world. He later released the book.
