# Retired Rajasthan professor teaches physics through Hindi poetry 2026-08-26T08:44:09+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 3 independent outlets Retired University of Rajasthan physics professor Rishi Kumar Singhal has written four books of Hindi poems explaining topics from rocket propulsion to black holes and the Raman Effect. His "Physics Through Poetry" initiative contains around 250 poems covering Class 12 to MSc level concepts, which can also be sung. Singhal told PTI that difficult subjects like rocket motion and quantum mechanics become simpler when explained through verse. His book "Kavya Bhautiki" received the Uttar Pradesh Hindi Sansthan's Sarjana Puraskar in 2020. The poems use rhyme and rhythm to describe Newton's laws, gravitational pull and molecular formation. ## Indian Opinion Analysis All three sources carry identical wire copy from PTI, so the coverage is uniform straight reporting with no editorial slant. The story is a novelty feature on a retired professor's teaching method, not a policy or political subject. The implication is that such cross-disciplinary approaches struggle to gain mainstream curriculum adoption. What matters is whether schools or universities incorporate Singhal's books into coursework. The Uttar Pradesh Hindi Sansthan's award gives official recognition, but classroom use remains the real measure of impact. ## Coverage Coverage: 3 sources, 3 neutral - rediff.com (neutral report) Straight agency copy, no slant visible - deccanherald.com (neutral report) Straight agency copy, no slant visible - hindustantimes.com (neutral report) Straight agency copy, no slant visible This brief was synthesised by AI from the 3 sources linked above, so one read covers every framing they carry.
