New Delhi [India], June 6 (ANI/SRV): With a view to bring back the culture of entrepreneurship within the Bengal Bengali community, BENGAL BUSINESS COUNCIL organized a knowledge session for entrepreneurs on June 12, 2022, at Astor Hotel, Kolkata. 'Bongiyo Antorjatik Banijyo Council' was formed last year with an agenda to promote the culture of starting a business rather than seeking a job.
Business in Bengal thrived in the 1800s and continued well into the middle of the 20th century, with prominent names like Prince Dwarkanath Tagore, Baboo Moti Lal Seal, Raja Rajendra Mullick, Baboo Subol Chand Chunder, Sir Biren Mookerjea and Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray, ruling the roost. This ensured that art, culture, and even the freedom struggle, was adequately funded. Charity became the order of the day, where large acres were donated to build schools, colleges and hospitals. The Bengal Business Council believes it is necessary to bring back this culture for the general welfare of the society. Sharing his thoughts on the upcoming knowledge session, Subhashis Dutt, General Secretary, BABC said, "Bengal has always taken a lot of pride in its rich past, essentially comprising of literature, music, sweets and other fine arts. One forgotten aspect has been that of businesses that flourished in Bengal, a century back. The founder members of the council comprises of distinguished and highly successful Bengali entrepreneurs. They feel, it is extremely important to revive this culture, to strengthen the economy of the state, and also create a solid base for bringing back the past dominance of Bengal in various fields, for without economic prosperity, it is very difficult to nurture other disciplines."
