On Wednesday, a mob attacked and vandalized Rabindranath Tagore‘s ancestral house in Sirajganj, Bangladesh’s Sirajganj city. In Shahzadpur in the Rajshahi section of Kachharibari, Tagore’s hereditary home is located. The Tagore family’s tax department is also here. While residing in this palace, Rabindranath Tagore wrote some of his artistic works. The Ministry of External Affairs ( MEA ) vehemently condemned the vandalism on Thursday. The MEA described it as a “violent” and “despicable” act that disrespected Tagore and the diverse ideals he embodied. Mahamata Banerjee, the chief minister of West Bengal, wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi earlier on Thursday, urging him to bring the issue up with Bangladesh and request that the neighboring nation” quickly bring to justice the perpetrators of this terrible and mindless act.”
