📖 Abstract

This study presents a focused analytical examination of the Haryanvi Saang-style Rāgaṇīs in the poetic work Adharajan, interpreted through the dual frameworks of Pingal prosody and folk-cultural hermeneutics. Concentrating on Rāgaṇīs 9–16, the research explores how indigenous metrical structures, performative conventions, and socio-political narratives converge to generate a distinctive literary-oral aesthetic.

The study identifies a flexible yet systematic adherence to Pingal principles, characterized by metrical ranges of 24–30 mātrās and dominant yati patterns such as 6+6+6+6 and 6+8+8+6. These structures reflect adaptive prosody aligned with oral performance traditions.

Thematically, the Rāgaṇīs foreground power, gender, and moral tensions within historically inflected narratives. Figures such as Raskapoor, Krishna Kunwari, and Fateh Kanwar represent varying dimensions of agency, sacrifice, and सत्ता-संघर्ष.

The study concludes that these compositions represent a dynamic synthesis of classical metrics and folk poetics, contributing significantly to literary and cultural studies.
