Nikhil Bharat Banga Sahitya Sammelan 2022

Nikhil Bharat Banga Sahitya Sammelan 2022, is an annual convention of Bengali literary personages of India organised at Sister Nivedita University.

Nikhil Bharat Banga Sahitya Sammelan is an annual convention of Bengali literary personages of India, held annually. The first annual conference Prabasi Banga-Sahitya Sammelan was held in Banaras at Central Hindu Boys School in 1923 and was presided over by Rabindranath Tagore. 

The love for Bengali literature and the language brought the eminent personalities in one stage. 
The inauguration of the centenary celebration of the concluding ceremony of Nikhil Bharat Banga Sahitya Sammelan was held at Sister Nivedita University Campus on 25th December. 

All the eminent personalities including Governor C V Ananda Bose, ex- speaker of Lok Sabha Meera Kumar, veteran actor Sharmila Tagore and noted Bikash Sinha graced the inauguration. Bose announced his wish to write a book in Bengali and release it in SNU. 

For Satyam Roychowdhury it was a historic moment to be sharing the stage with such influential personalities, " I am delighted to host a galaxy of respected guests on the SNU campus. It's a historic day for all of us. The institution, which has been associated with names like Tagore, Atulprasad, Sen, Ashapurna Devi, and others, is 100 years old today. I cannot recall any Bengali organisation, which has crossed 100 years. It is indeed surreal that 100 years ago, a group of Bengalis in Kanpur felt the need to return to their roots and created a historic organisation like NBBSS. Today it is the same connection with the roots and the love for the Bengali language, which has kept this organisation alive for 100 years," he said.
