Madhab Lal Maharjan is the owner of Mandala Book Point, a prominent bookstore in Kathmandu, Nepal.
Born in Kirtipur Municipality, located nine kilometers east of Kathmandu, Maharjan's journey into bookselling began during his time at Tribhuvan University, where he was inspired by Professor Ishwori Lal Shrestha. After graduating in 1974, Maharjan launched his career as a bookseller by opening his first bookshop, Himalayan Book Seller, in 1976.
Maharjan's Mandala Book Point has played a significant role in Nepal's literary scene, notably through the publication of the journal Studies in the History and Society of Nepal since 1996. This journal has contributed valuable academic discourse and has maintained a steady publication schedule, with Issue 24, Volume 1 released in June 2019.
In addition to his work as a bookseller and publisher, Maharjan has also been an active member of the literary community, serving as the general secretary of the National Book Sellers and Publishers' Association of Nepal. His contributions have made a lasting impact on the promotion of literature and academic publishing in Nepal.
