Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Humanities and Social Science - Year 2018, Vol 23, Issue 7
Abstract
Mahatma Gandhi, Father of the Nation, had a good relation with Bengal, though he had to face fierce criticism several times from different sections of the people of this province. Kolkata, formerly known as Calcutta, the capital of Bengal, witnessed Gandhi in different roles. Many important political decisions were taken by him in this city. Here he delivered many lectures at mass meetings. Many meetings were held in his honour also. The present paper endeavours to reveal Gandhi‘s detailed activities in Kolkata reflected in contemporary newspapers before he was accepted as a leader of Indian nationalist movement. A through and wide search has been made of the existing source of information through a careful study of contemporary newspapers like The Englishman, The Amrita Bazar Patrika, The Hindusthan Standrad, The Bengalee, The Statesman, The Indian Mirror and various published works.
