Bimal Singha (born 16 Oct. 1948) was more or less a “midnight’s child’. Rupashpur, his birthplace is a tiny village stuck between the Indo-Bangladesh (formerly Indo- Pak) border and Kamalpur. India had gained independence amidst communal riots and partition. Kamalpur, a frontier town had witnessed the worst of partition and was struggling to survive the trauma of the great shake. His father was a struggling government contractor. Thanks to his father’s whimsical nature, Bimal Singha saw penury and destitution at close quarters and an early encounter with privation and helpless suffering shaped up the course of his life.
