I am appreciative to Belur Math for accepting the donation. These gifts are also part of the ‘soul’ of PMC Group that I describe in my upcoming book, The Makings of PMC Group – A Corporation with a Soul."

The donation includes the notable Bose House which has been witness to many historical events and carries memories of great patriots and revolutionaries, the surrounding land, and a significant financial gift. The financial gift will provide for 1.) construction and development of two museum rooms, each housing panel exhibition-cum-photo galleries, manuscripts, rare and valuable collections and potentially, a multimedia presentation depicting the lives, activities, and legacies of Swami Vivekananda and Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, 2.) production of cultural and educational activities to promote inter-cultural and inter-religious harmony and, 3.) installation of a commemorative plaque stating: “This historic Bose House Property has been donated by Paritosh M. Chakrabarti and Srimati Chakrabarti to Ramakrishna Mission Saradapitha, Belur Math for the Construction and Development of a Cultural and Educational Center to Promote the legacy of Swamiji and Netaji”.

The chairman of Rishra Municipality, Vijay Sagar Mishra said, “It’s a matter of great joy and honor for all of us to watch the handing over ceremony of Rishra Bose House to Ramakrishna Mission Saradapitha Belur Math. Converting it to a museum will bring the common people closer to the works and activities of the great patriot Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose and Swami Vivekananda.
