LAKSHIMDRA KUMAR SARKAR’S
NIRAPARADH BANDINI (INNOCENT PRISONER)
Picture:  Debabrata Ghosh
Price:  Rs. 40/-
Many women were confined in different jails of West Bengal.  There were no accounts of them.  It tells us the inside story of how a young lawyer Shibshankar Chakraborty took them out of prison and there are many vital information packed into it.  The author Lakshmindra Kumar Sarkar was present in the trials of the court in different times and in different places and compiled the facts and figures for writing this book.

LAKHSMINDRA KUMAR SARKAR’S
NIRJATITO SHISHURA (EXPLOITED CHILDREN)
Price:  Rs. 25/-
There was no other book like this before on child labor.  What are the laws directed to protect them?  How the Indian children are exploited though there is a law.  A detailed description of the exploited children in different areas of Kolkata.  The author went as far as Canning to collect the information on child labor.  Many unknown facts have been highlighted in this book.  Many pictures are there as evidence.
Novel
Jeevan Nadir Tirey (On The Banks of The River of Life)
Picture:  Abhijit Sarkar

Lakshmindra Sarkar is a young writer and journalist.  In “Jeevan Nadir Tirey,” the author has described an unusual background while writing about the life of an ambitious individual’s life.  In the work, the hard life of the minorities and the stories of the bright and dark sides of the tribal people’s life has been mentioned.  The life of the inhabitants of the Sundarban region has been beautifully described through the mouth of the protagonist of the novel, Shantanu who is a journalist.  The author has shown a spontaneous pace in the life of the people.  From this point of view, we can say the novel is worth reading.  But that way of thinking forces the readers to think.

We will be happy if the writer’s first novel is taken into the literary discussion of the readers.  We wish a continuous advancement of the author in the days to come.
Written by Rabidas Saha Roy.
On the Jamteria Adibasi of Tripura
A new type of story
Lakshmindra Kumar Sarkar’s
SUKHARAMER JHUM CHASH (JHUM CULTIVATION OF SUKHARAM)
Picture:  Abhijit Sardar
“Sukharamer Jhum Chash” is a different kind of writing --- in this book, the daily life of Sukharam and simultaneously an interesting description of Jhum cultivation is given here.  The way in which the good and bad times of the tribes of Tripura have been mentioned shows the concern of the author about the tribal people’s life.  As he is concerned about the tribal people’s life and activities, so there is a great expectation of new information related to the tribe.  But while giving the information, he has not spoiled the main story line.  For this reason, we thank the author.  To the modern youth, it is an ideal example of a person who got engaged with the villagers leaving the city behind while working in a government job.  We hope he will write more novels on tribal life that is neglected by the Bengali literature.
