Poet Bhupal Rai was born in Bastim Village of Bhojpur(also known as Maajh Kirat), eastern hilly district of Nepal.[2]
After his high school education, he moved to Kathmandu for higher studies. His literary journey started with the publication of his first poem in "Chhahara" monthly magazine around 1977 AD. The magazine was published by his elder brother Gopal Chhanchha. Bhupal became a regular columnist in that magazine later with a satirical column called "Bela ko boli".
He indulged himself in songwriting and music composition in the 1980s. He also recorded a number of songs as Radio Nepal Singer during that decade. But after the 1990s, he quit singing to focus on writing. He believes that not only in his poems but also in his songs, he has written about racial discrimination, class struggles and Kirat culture and values.[3]
