'''Dwija Pashupati''' medieval poet, writer of ''Chandr''''a''''val''''i''. He introduced himself in his work as 'a son of Tripura';, that is of present-day [[noakhali]], [[comilla]] and [[sylhet]]. But his profuse use of the Sylheti dialect in ''Chandravali'' suggests that he was from Sylhet. ''Chandravali'' is based on ''M''''r''''ig''''a''''vat''''i'', a work by the Hindi poet Kutban. In his preamble work, Dwija Pashupati mentions the goddess Kali so many times that it is probable that he was a follower of Kali. Although he wrote in Bangla, he appears to have been well-versed in [[sanskrit]] as evidenced from his use of Sanskrit phrases, couplets and words.
