He was quite hard-pressed for money during the post-partition days. But his appointment as a lecturer in Urdu at Punjab University Camp College. Delhi, and at Dyal Singh College, eased his financial situation considerably. On retirement he was granted a scholarship of five thousand rupees per annum by the U.G.C. But he wasn't destined to live long, and died on 15 December, 1966, probably from cancer. He was buried at Kotla Ferozeshah graveyard on 16 December, 1966.
