VISVA-BHARATI GRANTHANA VIBHAGA

Monthly Performance Report : August 2015

PROGRAMME :

Book-fair at Rabindra Tirtha, Kolkata 20-27 August 2015 To mark the Prayan Paksha of Gurudeva, a week-long book-fair was organized by the Visva-Bharati Granthana Vibhaga in collaboration with Rabindra Tirtha at New Town, Kolkata from 20 to 27 August 2015. The book-fair cum exhibition stepped into the third year in collaboration with Rabindra Tirtha.

The exhibition was inaugurated by Professor Ujjal Kumar Majumder, a well- known Tagore scholar. In his speech, he spoke on the glorious history of the Granthana Vibhaga beginning from 1923. He remembered how Prasanta Chandra Mahalanobis, Kishorimohan Santra, Pulin Bihari Sen and others contributed in the making of the institution founded by Tagore himself. He mentioned that this book-fair has special importance as books are not readily available in this area. He appreciated the joint attempts of Granthana Vibhaga and Rabindra Tirtha to make Tagore's books available to the residents of New Town, Kolkata.

Dr. Ramkumar Mukhopadhyay, Director, Visva-Bharati Granthana Vibhaga, in his speech dwelt on the global reception of Tagore's writings, songs and paintings particularly in the present time. He mentioned that new interest in Tagore among the school and college students is presently seen both in the country and outside.

Sri Anup Motilal, Curator, Rabindra Tirtha, said that two permanent galleries have been initiated at Rabindra Tirtha, namely Jibansmriti (Picture gallery) and Chhobi O Gaan (Music gallery) to serve the citizens of Kolkata and tourists coming from outside.
