    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    Gopal Nilkanth Dandekar (July 8, 1916 – June 1, 1998) was a Marathi writer from Maharashtra, India.
    Dandekar was born in Paratwada in Amravati district.
    He grew up in Vidarbha but ran away from his home in Nagpur at age thirteen in response to Mahatma Gandhi's call to young people for joining his movement for India's attainment of freedom from the British Raj. After spending a few years in extreme poverty, he found some stability with a few patrons. Later he joined Rashtriya Svayamsevak Sangh and worked as a volunteer in Gadge Maharaj's social service movement. He traveled extensively.[1][2][3]

    Awards and honors[edit]

    In 1976, Dandekar received a Sahitya Akademi Award for his autobiographical work Smaran Gatha. He was elected president of Marathi Sahitya Sammelan held at Akola in 1981. He received an honorary D.Litt degree from Pune University on December 30, 1992.

    Personal life[edit]

    Dandekar and his wife Neera Dandekar have a daughter, Veena Dev. Veena has two daughters: Marathi actress Mrinal Kulkarni, and Madhura.
