Sitaram Lalas devoted 40 years to compiling this masterful work and was awarded the Padma Shri in 1977 for his contribution.
After completing formal schooling at the age of 16, Sitaramji Panna came to Jodhpur city on the advice of Ramji Maharaj and started living in Charan Hostel.
Gulab Chand Chudamani, the hostel manager, was kind enough to get him admission in Rajmahal School, from where he passed his special eighth class with excellence and double promotion from Marwar Central Board.
With the inspiration of Hari Narayanji Purohit, he started work related to Rajasthani literature and history for Nagari Pracharini Sabha, Banaras.
The book is in poetic form and throws light on the victorious achievements of Maharaja Abhay Singh of Marwar in the war against Sarbuland Khan of Gujarat.
This harsh advice from the old man pierced Sitaram's heart and proved to be a turning point in the creation of the dictionary of modern Rajasthani language.
The editing work of poet Karnidan's 'Suraj Prakash', which was started long ago, was given practical shape and its three volumes were published in 1960, 61 and 63 respectively.
This book contains the war achievements of Abhay Singh, the victorious Maharaja of Jodhpur against Sarbuland Khan of Ahmedabad.
