Dr. Jaymant Mishra (15 October 1925 – 7 September 2010) was a renowned Sanskrit scholar of India.
He had also been one of the prominent academicians of the Bihar province of India.
He served as the Vice Chancellor of K S D Sanskrit University (1985–1990).
Most of his literary works have a satirical literary tone which he uses to ridicule human vice and weakness — both on an individual and social level.
His works surprise the readers with his progressive views despite the fact that his era was one of the darkest ages of parochialism and denominationalism.
