The great filmmaker Satyajit Ray’s ancestral house was reported to be demolished in Maman Singh, Bangladesh, but now the Bangladeshi government has stopped the work of demolishing the house. The Government of India had intervened about this and also said that he will help in making it again. According to a report by NDTV, Satyajit Ray’s house will be renewed.

India had expressed concern about the demolition of Satyajit Ray’s house. Only after this, the work of going to the house was stopped. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee also opposed this demolition and said that this house is deeply connected to the cultural history of Bengal. This house in Maman Singh was of Upendra Kishore Ray Chaudhary, the famous Bengali writer and grandfather of Satyajit Ray.

What did the Ministry of External Affairs respond

Reacting to the demolition of the house, the Ministry of External Affairs said, “We are extremely sorry that the ancestral property of famous filmmaker and litterateur Satyajit Ray is being demolished in Maman Singh, Bangladesh.” Existing time This property owned by the Bangladesh government is in poor condition. Given the historical status of this building, it would be a good option to reconsider it again and make it in a better situation again. It is an important symbol of Bengali cultural.

Crack between India-Bangladesh?

Bangladeshi officials, citing the danger, suggested that a new concrete structure would be built instead of the dilapidated house. Officials also said that it will be made the center of cultural activities. The news of Satyajit Ray’s house being demolished has once again brought bitterness in the relations between India and Bangladesh. Since the coup of the Awami League government last year, the relationship between the two countries has not been good.
