==Biography==

Mohan Rana was born in [[Delhi]], India. He completed his graduate degree from [[Delhi University]].<ref name="poetrytranslation.org"/>

==Literary career==

The poet and critic, [[Nand Kishore Acharya]], has written about Mohan Rana's poetry that,

{{blockquote|"Amongst the new generation of Hindi poets, the poetry of Mohan Rana stands alone; it defies any categorisation. However, its refusal to fit any ideology doesn't mean that Mohan Rana's poetry shies away from thinking - but that it knows the difference between thinking in verse and thinking about poetry. For Mohan Rana the poetic process in itself is also thought process".<ref name="poetrytranslation.org"/>}}
