He is a poet who belongs to the transition period of Assamese literature. Gawalia bowari is a marked departure from the other poems of the period. The concluding lines are in a didactic manner. Its thought and imagery are neat. Mahanta's Asomat Man was published in the journal of Jonaki. This gives evidence of the historical-cum-political prose.
