The river Ganga is often referred to as the lifeline of India as it holds immense social, cultural, religious, and poetic significance. This research paper aims to analyse and explore the rich tradition of poetry inspired by the River Ganga, particularly in the city of Banaras. By exploring the historical and cultural context of Banaras and its deep connection with the Ganga, we will analyze the themes, motifs, and poetic expressions in selected poems on Ganga by eminent poet Keki Daruwalla that have emerged from this relationship between the city and the sacred river Ganga.
