My Story

From historic times, Books have always been human’s friend. In olden times, when there was no digitization, the knowledge which was shared to the world, was through books; written either on paper with an ink or in specialized clay tablets.

​

Today’s books are printed with a good cover. Books are not just a source of knowledge but through this one can feel living emotions, move through the clouds, fly across the fantasy world and can enlighten ourselves from the knowledge of the ancient seers. The art of reading a book have come across new challenge due to the presence of videos, silver screens, mobile online platforms etc.

​

However, book reading has its own benefits. Majumdar's late father Prodip Mazumder use to say that reading a book helps one’s brain to work and make the nerves and neurons to interact more with each other. The scientists and medical fraternity may agree or disagree but book reading has a charm of its own. It’s a world, which opens you to immense possibilities.
