PRAGNYA MUKHERJEE PASSED AWAY
Pragnya Mukherjee, wife of Late Shashanka Mukherjee passed away yesterday at Bhopal after a prolonged illness. Her funeral and last rituals would be performed at Shubhasnagar Bishram Ghat today.
A prominent personality, writer, social worker and actor in the recent past, Pragynya Mukherjee was one of those Bengali at Bhopal, when newly made Madhya Pradesh State was started functioning. A strong symbol of Women Empowerment, she was also an active member of Bharat Sevashram Sangha along with her husband Late Shashanka Mukherjee. Pragnya Mukherjee was also one of the founder members of Mahila Samiti, Bhopal.
Do Bengalis face discrimination in Madhya pradesh from the native population?

ReplyDeleteAnd we believe, you will get the answer of your question !!
Good comment (?) !
Happy questioning !
As far my knowledge goes I have a feeling that there is no nativeness or belongingness particularly for Madhya Pradesh.This is one of the reason for its backwardness. It is a multicultural society. The native population are the tribals who have no say. Although discrimination has not been felt so far but the fact remains that though it is minority community no benefits have been given by the Govt just as it is given to other such communities communities. One of the reason being we have no representation in the political scenario. It is time that Bengalees should unite and show their strength now.
ReplyDeleteIt is a very sad moment for the Bengalee society of Bhopal of having lost two towering personalities of the city in a very short period of 3 months. First Late Shri Shashanko Mukherjee and now Late Smt Pragya Mukherjee.Both of them had distinct characters and were known for their outright expressions. In the early years of buildingup of the Benglee Society of Bhopal both of them contributed wholeheartdly and played a leading role. Both of them were past Presidents of the Society and played an active role. Late Smt Mukherjee will be remembered by one and all for her smiling and pleasing personality. May her soul rest in peace in heaven. Salil Chatterjee, Secretary,Bengalee Association, Bhopal.
ReplyDeleteplease accept my deep felt gratitude for the kind words expressed for my parents,
ReplyDeletewarm regards ..
Dear Friend,
ReplyDeleteThe Bengali Association is really proud to be associated with Late Pragnya Mukherjee & Late Shashanko Mukhejee to name a few. And they are (not were) always be remembered as founders of this Association. Not only this, Bengalees at Bhopal can not deny their footsteps in any form of existence.
May their soul rest in peace in heaven.
Happy remembering !
