Episode Synopsis

This podcast by Boddhisatya Tarafdar is about a poem by Manish Ghatak on Lt. Kamala Bhattacharjee who laid her life along with 10 others during a brutal police firing on May 19, 1961 at Silchar, Assam, India. They were peacefully agitating for the official status of Bengali language in that region.
Silchar every year marks this day in memory of the brave hearts.
