Una, January 20
Miniature writer Ram Kumar Joshi, who hails from Mehatpur in Una district, has been honing his craft for the last four decades. The most recent of his works is a miniature drawing of his rendition of the Ram Temple.
The multi-colour drawing is 30.5 cm wide and 22.5 cm tall and is made up of the word ‘Ram’ written in hindi 9,931 times, invisible to the naked eye. The miniature writing was used to create the temple architecture, trees, grass, flags and the sky, according to Joshi. Joshi has created nearly 100 miniature drawings on postage stamps, visiting cards, post cards and drawing sheets. Some of his renowned creations are sketches of freedom fighters and eminent personalities using the word ‘Ram’.
In a November 28, 2021 episode of ‘Mann Ki Baat’, PM Narendra Modi had praised Joshi’s art. Since his childhood, Joshi had a passion for miniature writing.
