As a doctor in the army, Pandit Garg had opportunities to visit various places and intimately observe local people and culture in the northern frontier regions of India. Being a good writer, he often wrote about his experiences and observations during these trips in local Hindi newspapers. For several years, he had his own column, entitled Garg Vinod (Garg’s Happy Words) in the Hindi popular newspaper-journal ‘Bharat Mitra’ (Friends of India). Later, several of his series of essays were published as books. Among his significant published books are ‘Shishu-Palan’ (Child Care), ‘Prithvi Parikrama’ (Globe Trotting), ‘Pati-Patni Samvad’ (Dialogue between Husband and Wife), ‘Dant-Raksha’ (Care of Teeth), ‘Tarunon ki Dincharya’ (Daily Routine for Youth), ‘Anant Jwala’ (Eternal Flame), ‘Japaniya Stri Shikksha’ (Women’s Education in Japan), ‘Plague Chikitsa’ (Treatment of Plague), ‘Dhruva Desh’ (Arctic Countries), ‘Sukh Marga’ (Road for Peace), ‘Paricharya Pranali’ (Medical Treatment Primer) and ‘Chin Darpan’ (Chinese Mirror).
