I thank you so much for forwarding such a gem to us at a time when a reactionary communal force in Bangladesh is, once again, trying to portray Rabindra Nath as a communal Hindu-poet and Kazi Nazarul Islam as a genuine Muslim-poet. The epic recitation by Kazi Nazrul Islam of his historic poem, dedicated to Rabindra Nath, reveals the true identity of Kazi Narul Islam. To him, there was no demarcation between Hindu and Muslim; he used to dwell in both sides at ease. Isn't this a true heavenly quality? Why can't we all do so? On the other hand, if you think about communal people - can you find anything good in them? Anything, anything at all! They are just worthless life forms walking on the face of this earth. Isn't it?
