'''Gyanendrapati''' (Hindi: ज्ञानेंद्रपति; born 1 January 1950) is an Indian [[Hindi]] poet, known for his distinctive poetic style rooted in the tradition of [[Suryakant Tripathi]] 'Nirala' and his innovative use of language that blends tatsama, tadbhava, and deshaj (indigenous) words. A recipient of the [[Sahitya Akademi Award]] in 2006 for his poetry collection ''Sanshayatma'', Gyanendrapati has made significant contributions to contemporary Hindi poetry, exploring themes of social justice, environmental concerns, and human compassion.<br />
<br />
His works, such as ''Gangatat'' and ''Ganga-Beeti'', reflect a deep engagement with the cultural and ecological significance of the Ganga River, while his poetry often addresses the struggles of marginalised communities.<br />
