2

Victoria Memorial

Located on 1 Queen’s way, the VMH was envisaged by Lord Curzon, the Viceroy of British India, as a memorial to the deceased Queen Victoria. Hence, according to Curzon this memorial should take the form of a great marble hall, which was to be erected on the Calcutta Maidan to serve primarily as a monument to the Queen and secondarily as a national gallery and Valhalla of the Indian Empire.

3

Biswa Bangla Convention Centre

Located on 1 Queen’s way, the VMH was envisaged by Lord Curzon, the Viceroy of British India, as a memorial to the deceased Queen Victoria.

Abhijit Banerjee(1961)

Cooking & eating are often on Banerjee's mind. But for the Nobel-winning (2019) economist, what starts with planning the lunch usually ends up in questions on consumption, production, distribution of food, & their impact on the broader economic issues of our times. And, why not! Afterall, his experimental approach to alleviating global poverty brought the Nobel this time.

Amartya Sen(1933)

Sen, the most Argumentative Indian, has always been a strong voice for community welfare. Being an economist he is devoted to 'conscience of his profession' & received the Nobel Prize in 1998 in Economic Sciences for his contributions to welfare economics & social choice theory.

Dr Bidhan Chandra Roy(1882-1962)

Politics is known to consume everything, even the identity of doctors, actors.... who make it their vocation. But Dr Roy, the second chief minister of West Bengal, stands tall as an eminent physician as an exception in the world of politics. His birth anniversary, July 1, which incidentally is also his death anniversary, is celebrated as National Doctors' Day.

Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay(1838-1894)

Bankim may not be as common a household name as Tagore, but he steered Bengali literature, social satire & journalism in a direction that has a profound legacy even today. He was the face of the Bengal Renaissance, an exemplary novelist, & the man who gave India its Vande Mataram.

CV Raman(1888-1970)

Raman's attitude to question natural phenomena brought a phenomenal achievement in 1930; the Raman Effect - his ground-breaking work in the field of light scattering - snatched the spotlight. Raman was the first Asian to receive a Nobel Prize in any branch of science.

Dr Kadambini Ganguly(1861-1923)

There was no medical college for female students. After a long protest, Kadambini became the first woman to enroll in Calcutta Medical College. In the South Asian continent, she was the first female physician who was trained in Dublin, Glasgow & Edinburgh.

Rabindranath Tagore(1861-1941)

He was the first Asian to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913 for Gitanjali. It's truly said that words are mightier than weapons - we sing his 'jana-gana-mana', Bangladesh has embraced his 'amar sonar bangla'. The emotional trials & tribulations in Tagore's words have stayed with us in every state of mind.

Raja Rammohan Roy(1772-1833)

He fathered the Indian renaissance. Roy's protest emboldened the British Raj to act decisively on the age-old custom of Sati Pratha, leading to its prohibition in 1829. Look at his time! Press liberty, women's right of inheritance... still in the womb of the future. He was among those first voices who demanded for these.

Sir Ronald Ross(1857-1932)

Discovery of malarial parasites & its transmission in the gastrointestinal tract of a mosquito was a gigantic victory over the million-murdering tiny sting. This laid the foundation for the method of combating the disease. Ross was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1902.

Satyajit Ray(1921-1992)

Ray's cinematic heritage belongs as much to the world as to India. His forte to communicate & capture the intricacies of human mind brought the first Academy Award (Oscar) to India. He penned the first Indian Sci-fi series, the famous Bong Holmes Feluda, as well. But more than a filmmaker or author, Ray was a cult wind here.

Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose(1897-1945)

Tum mujhe khoon do, main tumhe azadi dunga... Bose's burning slogan sparked patriotism in the hearts of many Indians during the freedom struggle. These words don't fail even today. 23rd January, Netaji's Birth Anniversary is celebrated as Parakram Diwas to remember & pay homage to the indomitable spirit.

Mother Teresa(1910-1997)

Mother - there is no greater love than this. Saint Teresa had a kingly life lived for the distressed. To let someone begin to smile... probably she had the most simplest path towards peace. In 1979, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her charitable work.

Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar(1820-1891)

Here's a lore that he learned English numerals by following the mile-stones labels on the way from his village to Calcutta. Being an ardent advocate of social reform & education, his name is taken together with implementing Hindu Widows' Remarriage Act & women education, banning Bahubivah (polygamy) & Balyabivah (child marriage).
