Language row: SFI sends ‘Barnaparichay', ‘Sahaj Path' to Malviya
Kolkata: SFI, the students' wing of CPM , on Wednesday sent copies of 'Barnaparichay' and 'Sahaj Path' to Bengal BJP's co-in-charge in the state, Amit Malviya, following his comments on Bangla. "There is an attempt to incite hatred against the Bengali speakers across India. Amit Malviya's argument defending the Delhi Police statement clearly shows that he does not have any idea of the culture and language in the state. Bengal has been a melting pot for people from different cultural and linguistic backgrounds. That is the identity of Bengal," said SFI's state secretary Debanjan Dey, adding, "We also asked him to read the basic textbooks written in Bangla. " Malviya had posted on X: "There is, in fact, no language called 'Bengali' that neatly covers all these variants. 'Bengali' denotes ethnicity, not linguistic uniformity." The SFI also criticised TMC for trying to gain political mileage. "This binary is being created to polarise the population in the state. If they fail to learn from this, we will send flight tickets to BJP netas and ask them to visit the Andaman Cellular Jail. Hundreds of revolutionaries from Bengal were tortured there while BJP's ideologue Savarkar escaped from there."

Bengali podcast blends the power of AI with music and storytelling
A YouTube channel named Sahaj Path, that promotes art and culture of Bengal has recently launched Daulatdiyar Chithi - The Daulatdia Chronicle , a Bengali audio-visual podcast that blends AI with music, storytelling, and visuals to create a unique cultural experience. Produced by Neelanjan Ghosh, who served as writer, producer, and designer, the project is a testament to modern digital creativity. Direction, narration, voiceover, and song selection were expertly handled by USA-based elocutionist Amrita Sircar. The content features eight pre-released Bengali songs—seven sung by singer Arpita Bose Roy (female voices) and one by Anirban Dutta (male voice)—integrated seamlessly into a 48-minute narrative. The story revolves around a young, talented girl from a remote West Bengal village who falls victim to caste-based politics and finds herself in Daulatdia, Bangladesh's largest red-light district. Her journey is one of hardship, hope, and resilience, culminating in a series of life-changing events—rescue, love, loss, and eventual empowerment. The narrative explores themes of social injustice, survival, and the indomitable spirit of underprivileged women.
