Author Raj Smaddar
Raj Smaddar, born in the village of Raonta near Moga, Punjab, began her literary journey with the encouragement of none other than Amrita Pritam—her poetry first published in the iconic Nagmani magazine. Over the years, her pen quietly documented life’s truths: its tenderness, turmoil, and transcendence.
Now, at the age of 70, Raj makes her official literary debut with a voice steeped in honesty, grace, and timeless observation. Her writing is proof that creativity knows no age—and that some stories only ripen with time. Mitthi Nadi is not just a collection of poems; it’s a river of memories, emotions, and reflections flowing from a life fully lived.
