# Balakrishna Bhagwant Borkar

> Balakrishna Bhagwant "Bakibab" Borkar, also known as Ba-ki-baab was an Indian poet. He started writing poems at an early age. Writer Vishnu Sakharam Khandekar was an early champion of Borkar's poetry. Borkar joined Goa's liberation movement in the 1950s and moved to Poona, where he worked for the radio. Most of his literature is written in Marathi, though his Konkani output is also considerable. He excelled as a prose writer as well. His long poems Mahatmayan, an unfinished poem dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi, and TamaHstotra are famous. One of his famous poems is "Mazha Gaav", meaning "My village". After Borkar's death, fellow Marathi writer Pu La Deshpande and his wife Sunitabai performed public readings of Borkar's poetry.
