Dear Moderators of Alochona Group,
Is it necessary to publish this kind of rubbish write-up here in
Alochona group? I was a founder member of Alochona group since 1998.
Alochona is a Bangladesh centric forum encompassing topics related to
Bengali culture and Bangladeshi people. We have got over 16 thousands
different postings from different writers during last 12 years. We have
got knowledge in relation to Bengali culture, politics, philosophy and
socioeconomic topics; many of the intellectual personalities of Bengali
society have drawn us to the Enlightenment. But I can not take part in
this kind of stupid opinion that "Rabindranath Tagore is an enemy of
Bangladesh People".
Tagore's reputation as a philosopher and writer was established in
undivided India and in Abroad after the publication of Gitanjali. His
Song Offerings, in which Tagore tried to find inner calm and explored
the themes of divine and human love. His cosmic visions owed much to
the lyric tradition of human religion and its concepts about the
relationship between man and God.
Gitanjali published in 1912 with an introduction by William Butler
Yates, who wrote "These lyrics - which are in the original, my Indians
tell me, full of subtlety of rhythm, of untranslatable delicacies of
colour, of metrical invention - display in their thought a world I have
dreamed of all my life long." His poems were praised by Ezra Pound,
and drew the attention of the Nobel Prize committee.
Tagore is the composer of our National Anthem "Amar Sonar Bangla" and
if someone called him as an "enemy of Bangladesh People" than he is
definitely undermining our national and state sovereignty and playing
with the sentiments of all Bangladeshi people.
So I request you to read the post before approving it for 4000 readers
of this forum.
With best thanking.

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?
