Notable workKukikatar Puthi

Gul Bakhsh (Bengali: গুল বখশ, romanized: gul bôkhsh) was a Bengali poet of the late 19th-century.[1] He is mainly known for his magnum opus, Kukikatar Puthi, which was a narrative of the Kuki raids at Chhagalnaiya in 1860.[2] It was written in the puthi format.[3]

His puthi was featured on the Paschimbanga Bangla Akademi Magazine in 1375 B.S. (c. 1969 CE).[4] One 80-year old incomplete manuscript (pages 3 to 17) is preserved at the Puthi Library of the University of Dhaka. Another incomplete manuscript (pages 4 to 17) is preserved at the Central Bengali Development Board.[5]
