Today is the 118 birthday of Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay - the eminent writer of Bengal who was born at a rural village, but a major part of his life spent in Kolkata. He is my most favourite novelist and short story writer. Khelat Ch Ghosh Memorial Committee will observe his birthday in Kolkata today. Another popular writer Buddhadeb Guha will preside over the function and will discuss about Bandyopadhyay's literature and life.
