The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has paid homage to renowned Bengali writer Saratchandra Chattopadhyay on his 150th birth anniversary. Remembering the eminent writer, Shri Modi highlighted the enduring significance of his literary works, which have been translated into every Indian language and several foreign languages.

The Prime Minister posted on X:

Homage to noted Bengali writer, the versatile Saratchandra Chattopadhyay on his 150th birth anniversary.

His works, translated into every Indian language and several foreign languages, are remembered for their accurate depiction of 19th century India, especially Bengali society in rural areas. Equally noteworthy was his commitment to social reform, women’s rights and nationalism.

I call upon more youngsters to read his writings in the times to come.

প্রখ্যাত বাঙালি লেখক, বহুমুখী প্রতিভার অধিকারী শরৎচন্দ্র চট্টোপাধ্যায়ের ১৫০তম জন্মবার্ষিকীতে জানাই বিনম্র শ্রদ্ধাঞ্জলি।

ভারতের সমস্ত ভাষায় এবং একাধিক আন্তর্জাতিক ভাষায় অনূদিত তাঁর সাহিত্যকর্মগুলি উনিশ শতকের ভারত, বিশেষ করে গ্রামীণ অঞ্চলের বাঙালি সমাজকে সঠিকভাবে চিত্রিত করার জন্য স্মরণীয় হয়ে রয়েছে। সামাজিক সংস্কার, নারী অধিকার এবং জাতীয়তাবাদের প্রতি তাঁর দায়বদ্ধতাও সমানভাবে স্মরণীয়।

আগামী দিনের তরুণ-তরুণীকে আমি আরও বেশি করে তাঁর রচনা পড়ার জন্য আহ্বান জানাচ্ছি।
