Major works

His long poem, Bharat Gatha, narrating the history of India from ancient times up to Sepoy Mutiny, was published in 1895. However, his longest poem Udasini, published in 1875, earned him considerable recognition and praise.

Connection with the Tagore family

Akshay was Jyotirindranath Tagore's class mate in Hindu School. Jyotirindranath was the elder brother of Rabindranath Tagore.

Rabindranath loved to discuss high level literature with Akshay. Both Akshay and his wife participated in literary discussions that were held in a garden of the Thakur Bari; the garden was later named Nandan Kanan by Akshay.

Rabindranath Tagore referred to help received from Akshay in his own book titled My Reminiscences.

gollark: Looping construct: jump backward one instruction (`L`)Branching construct: pick next instruction or previous instruction (`B`) - next if accumulator > 0, previous if accumulator <= 0.New branching construct: pick next instruction if user types `0` or previous if user types anything else (`N`)Making loop non-infinite: `E`, exits program if accumulator < 0.+1/-1 act on an accumulator initialized at zero (`+`/`-`)A program consists of a sequence of these instructions (first line) and arbitrary data encoded in base64 (second line) which is loaded into linear memory as bytes. These are executed left-to-right until the end is reached; when this occurs the direction of execution will be reversed.Infinite arbitrary data: command (`D`) to set accumulator to value of linear memory at position in accumulator.This language is called "HahaYourLawIsBad".
