Thanks a lot for giving us a link of an article about Rabindranath
Tagore written by Ibn Golam Samad. In the eighties, the author was an
Associate Professor at Bangladesh Agricultural University and Rajshahi
University.
Mr. Golam Samad could not find a single good quality in Tagore. Rather
he tried his best to defame Tagore with all his strength, anguish and
narrow vision.
He might have life-long body ache and heart burn due to the breakaway
of East Pakistan to become independent as Bangladesh. It is this Mr.
Samad who wrote the "History of Rajsahi".

There are a great number of people who tries to portray/make
Rabindranath as 'Devta' a super human being. I acknowledge him as
super kobi and shahittik but man Robindranath is always deplorable to
the Muslim Community of Bengal. He was a die hard communal person
therefore let's talk about his contributions to Bangla Shahittya only.
What we can see in Bangladesh by some people that they start Rabindra
puja. Astagfirrullah.
The person who objected to the creation of Dhaka University as the
people of East Bengal will benifit specially the Muslims, was
deplorable then, deplorable now and will remain deplorable for all the
time.
The same Rabindranath did not allow any muslims to be admitted to Biswa
Bharati until Nezam of Hydrabad made a handsome contribution to the
instituition with an attachment that muslims be admitted to the
institution. Can someone still say person Rabindranath was non-communal?
The same Rabindranath opposed vehimently the creation of new Assam/East
Bengal province by Lord Carzon 1905 for the benefit of backward Assam
and East Bengal. He never liked to see that we the East bengalis
florish though his livelyhood was from them.
Therefore, brothers and sisters please jump with joy for his creations
(literature) but dot try to portray him as the champion of humanity and
super champion of non-communal thinking.
If Bangladeshis have some reservation to the person Rabindranath, there
is nothing wrong in it.

humanity
Back then treating Muslims like crap was "Business as usual". Not
letting Muslims to touch Hindus, not letting Muslims into houses (Even
kids), Not eating from Muslims and many other flavors of oppression was
common.
However (My personal opinion) calling Rabindranath "Enemy of humanity"
is a bit harsh. In many other respect, he had loads of good qualities
as well. Ignoring your tax paying subjects was the norm than exception.
If you look at our leading political parties of today, they ignore tax
paying people like us but I do not consider them enemy of humanity
(Only cold blooded murderers are enemy of humanity). ;-)
I think core teaching of Islam is to be forgiving and having faith in
Allah (SWT). Even when someone treated us like crap. Our history is
victim of our political flavor of the day. One day Rabindranath is
answer to all problems and next day everyone forgets him!!
I feel Rabindranath was a positive part of our history and culture. He
was man of his day and his day was mostly hell for Bengali Muslims.
Considering everything happened to our forfathers. It is more important
that, we learn from mistakes of the past. We should never use history
as justification to treat fellow human being badly in our time. No
matter what background he/she comes from.
May peace be unto all of you.

Rabindranath: enemy of Bangladesh People n humanity
Dear All,
Do you know that Poet" Bshakobi " rabindranath
1 )compelled his Muslim subjects Giving Chanda For Puja
2) compelled his Muslim subjects giving Tax for Bared ( Lari rakharv
jonno kor Adai korto)
3)He never established a single school in his jomidari in Bangladesh(
silaidoh , shajatpur or potisosr)
4)He opposed and protested the establishment of Dhaka University
5)oppression on subjects by Rabindranath is a well established Truth.
He was getting Khetabs , as supported the British colonial regime when
nazrul was jailed for his role against the British regime.
But sometimes some so called manobotabadi ask for establish the ideal
of This rabindranath.
What kind of "Manobotabadi was Rabindranath n his supporters?
