It is difficult to write and say two words about Urdu writer and critic Abdul Kavi Desnavi, especially on his birthday. The writers about whom the people of Bihar still say after his death that Desnavi has been snatched away from us by the Bhopalites. He was also a mentor to other renowned Urdu writers such as Javed Akhtar and Iqbal Masood.

The people of Bihar say that after studying from Mumbai, Desnavi's whole life was spent in Bhopal. Here, he continued to serve as a professor in the college. Desnavi was born in 1930 in Dansen of Bihar. This added Abdul Kavi to his name Desnavi.
