Speaking to the media, Mr. Sanjay Majumder, Club President said, “S B Park Sarbojanin takes immense pride to celebrate the 53rd year with its theme – Elem Notun Deshe (We have arrived in a new land). During such a convulsive time as ours, when the world around is getting narrower every second by politics, religion, capitalism and the climate crisis looming large, S B Park attempts to reach out to a solution via artistic imagination.
‘Arrived in a new land’ was the phrase used by Rabindranath Tagore himself in his play “The Tasher Ghor”. In the play, he talked about a life devoid of divisions, distinctions, or differences. Even in S. B. Park, this concept was reflected in the design of the public gathering space. Birds do not need a country, passport, or visa; they can freely fly from one land to another, unburdened by boundaries, just like light and air. Similarly, if you step into Thakurpukur’s Puja mandap, it will seem that there is no division. ” he added inviting everyone to come to the puja with family and friends.
