Rangpur Sahitya Parishad and Rajbanshi Community: An Introduction by Panchanan Barma

Author(s) Bimal Chandra Barman
Country India
Abstract This paper explores Panchanan Barma's involvement in the 'Rangpur Sahitya Parishad,' an engagement
that provided him with the platform to carve out a unique identity and lay the groundwork for the
Rajbanshi archive, which served as a cornerstone for the establishment of the 'Kshatriya Samity.' This
endeavor contributes to an assessment of the nature of Bengali nationalism propagated by the 'Sahitya
Parisad.' The analysis seeks to illuminate the dynamics of the relationship between the Sahitya Parishad
and the Rajbanshi community, as well as the influence of Bengali nationalism on this interaction. Within
this context, the paper delves into Panchanan Barma's identification of the Rajbanshi as a distinct caste
separate from the broader Bengali identity, a pivotal aspect of inquiry within the study.
