Ambadan Rohadiya is a reputed writer, critic, academic, and scholar of Dingala, Gujarati, and Rajasthani and is considered as an authority in Charan literature[1] as well as folk literature of Gujarat.[2][3] His research works and publications of narrative charanic texts span around four decades. As an academic, Ambadan served as professor and HOD of Gujarati department at the Saurashtra University as well as presided as the Director of the Meghani Lok Sahitya Kendra which annually awards the Jhaverchand Meghani Award.[4][5][6][7][8][9]

Career

[edit]

Ambadan started as a reader in Sahitya Bhawan at Saurashtra University where he completed his master's degree. He was a regular visitor at the Gujarati department which housed more than 12 thousand manuscripts of Gujarati and Charan literature. Early on, he came in contact with Ratudan Rohadiya and Kavi Dad who led the manuscript safeguarding and conservation effort resulting in the massive collection of manuscripts at the university. Through Ratudan, he took part in the research and editing of these manuscripts.[10] He completed his PhD doctorate over the 16th century saint-poet Hardas Misan, author of Jalandhar Puran and Bhringi Puran among other texts. He also focused his research on other medieval poets including Mahatma Isardas, Asaji Rohadiya and Langidas Mahedu.[11][12]

As a professor and HOD of Gujarati at Saurashtra University,[13] Ambadan launched various certificate courses and seminars on Charan and Jain literature and his efforts to open a unique department of Charan literature and studies were successful.[14][15] From 2004 onwards, he served as the head of this department. He was appointed director of the Jhaverchand Meghani Lok Shahitya Kendra established in 2011.[16][17][18][12] In 2015, Ambadan was invited to speak at North America Literary Convention by Gujarati Literary Academy held in New Jersey, US.[19]
