I was only influenced by Sri Premchand writings!

Md. Sadat Hasan Manto may be the talk of the town these days after much of his portrayal into movies and Urdu recitals but if India has got much of its life and blood into its veins then it is the work of Munshi Premchand ji who was an eminent writer during the Indian Independence Revolution. 
I never went through Sri Rabindranath Tagore literary works although I heard much about his Gitanjali and also his ways of work to bring a kind of renaissance into Bengal I did not found enough time to go through any of his writings.
Now, talking about the icon in terms of writings and his literary works Munshi Premchand Ji puts stress on Indian rural mindset and although his books are not into much of the people's mind as none of the movies portray his stories it is all because his stories are about very common people and their struggles to get the daily necessities of life which is near to Roti, Kapda Aur Makan.
If one goes through the story of Bhura and Moti it is about the poor farmer working day and night to meet the food production for the household and how much his animals love him could be found in the story. The other story was Idgah in which the boy in the character buys a Chimta for the mother and she obeys to make roti on time and completely feels into understanding the needs of the son and vice versa. 
This particular story has influenced me since childhood and primarily my entire thought process revolves around this story and keeps me under dedication come what may. I always believed that my duty comes first and for me thinking about influencing someone is far from necessary and most of the time I remain into myself rather than running towards anything which could be called to be over modern.
I also do not believe much into being a show-off and most of the time my nearest of the detractors were just influenced by my thought along with changing his mind to be rude towards me and cherish the good moments in which he or she has spent with me.
Although, Premchand Ji has his own struggles in his life and the British Government has also put a ban on his literary works along with Soje Watan which was daily news read to inspire the Social revolutionaries and thus one could consider him the most important Socialist before any other person who got recognized as a Socialist in India in terms of pre-independence days.
My father at my adolescent age did not give too much of literary works of Sri Premchand ji and much of his way of thinking was to provide me books like Competition Success Review and Pratiyogita Drapan which still imbibed the sense of understanding the better article writing which is akin to writing for the competitive exams and also it helped to increase my mindset knowingly or unknowingly.
I was never influenced by books like James Hadley Chase or any poor novels by Sri Gulshan Nanda and if I was caught reading such books at times while visiting my Grandparents home as one of my uncle use to read such novels I immediately got beatings by my father in the most vehement ways.
So, I could say that for any mistakes in my life my father never spared me and that is the reason I still have the sense of understanding the patriarchal ways of life and giving at the most a better understanding of fatherhood rather than spoiling the child.
Now, getting back to the thought I was only influenced by Sri Premchand writings although I never went to Lamhi which is the ancestral village of the writer for me the iconic development of villages and the revival of the agriculture in India which was the dream of Sri Premchand ji along with food, shelter, and clothings for everyone gives me a kick and I believe the day has come when indians are understanding about having their own roti from their own piece of land which is the biggest transition for the Krishak and majdoor samaj!
