His grandchildren include Dr. Baninder Rahi (journalist and media educator who has worked with the Indian Express,[4] The Pioneer and Daily Post India).
He mentored writers including Rajwant Kaur Nagi and Shiv Kumar Batalvi[citation needed] during his early years.
Kulbir Singh Kang mentioned that Rahi has his own unique style of writing which is not influenced by any other prominent or popular author.
While referring to Rahi's autobiography 'Main Kiven Jivia'[8] Kang further mentioned that he did not make any attempt to hide or manipulate any incident irrespective of the consequences.
He further mentioned, "he has endeavoured to preach unity of godhead, brotherhood of man, secularism and above all international friendship in the context of his cherished slogan of Jai Mitarta.
"[10] As mentioned by Manpreet Kaur in her thesis,[11] "Jaswant Singh Rahi is a writer with traditional proverbs and modern enlightenment.
The background of this repugnancy is based on the religion as corollary of social values and facing the capitalist who converts the production into capital."
