My formal training is in Economics with a PhD from the M. S. University of Baroda, Gujarat,
where I also taught for some time. Fortunately, I have been able to combine my love of
traveling with academics by presenting at both National and International Conferences
leading to publications at the national and international levels. My passion, however, lies in
music. I have scripted and conducted lecture demonstrations and musical programs based on
Tagore’s work. My association with Antonym has allowed me to share some of my English
translations of Tagore’s letters and memoirs, reaching out to those of his admirers who may
not be familiar with Bengali.
Very insightful interview taken by Owshnik Ghosh of my work and reflections. Thank uou Owshnik.
[…] Antonym Magazine. The first of a multiple-installment focus on the Murder Ballad can be found at the Antonym Magazine…
Nicely done
Beautiful 😊😊👌🏽
Loved the way Debraj links it a full circle, though they're 3 characters from different novels. Kudos!!
Excellent translation doing full justice to the essence of the original poems
