write a paragraph in on seventy words on Bibhutibhuson Nandyopadhay
Answers
The Bandyopadhyay family originated in the Panitar village near Basirhat, located in the North 24 Parganas district of modern-day West Bengal. Bibhutibhushan's great-grandfather, who was an Ayurvedic physician, eventually settled at Barakpur village, near Gopalnagar, Banagram(now-Bongaon), North 24 Parganas.[2] However, Bibhutibhushan was born in Muratipur village near Kalyani Ghoshparai, Nadia, at his maternal uncle's house. His father, Mahananda Bandyopadhyay, was a Sanskrit scholar and story-teller (Kathak) by profession. Mahananda and his wife Mrinalini had five children, of whom Bibhutibhushan was the eldest.
Bibhutibhushan's childhood home was at Barakpur village, near Gopalna
Education[edit]
The writer studied at Bongaon High School, one of the oldest institutions in British India and was considered a consistently talented student.
Martin Seymour-Smith, in his Guide to Modern World Literature (1973), describes Bibhutibhushan (he uses the form Banerji) as "perhaps the best of all modern Indian novelists", going on to write that "probably nothing in twentieth-century Indian literature, in prose or poetry, comes to the level of Pather Panchali".[6]
Personal life[edit]
Bibhutibhushan's early days were spent in abject poverty and he subsequently supported his family financially, though the extent of his support is unknown.
