Post graduate study in Pure Mathematics (1956-1958)

Before the results of M.Sc. being published we had to shift to our newly constructed house at Madhyamgram at the end of 1958. Our result was published in the first part of 1959. The first eating rice of the elder son of my elder brother, Kumud Ranjan (first grand son of Ashutosh samadder ) was held there within two/three days. 









The first Indian teacher of Pure Mathematics with International accolades was Prof. S. D. Mukherjee whose works in Geometry derive appreciation even now. The Department of Pure Mathematics can boast of its predecessors who have set up such a qualitative pattern that the progeny feels inspired. The Department feels pride for the Geometers, like Dr. S. D. Mukherjee, Dr. R. N. Sen, Dr. M. C. Chaki and others; Analysts, like Dr. W. H. Young, Dr. Ganesh Prasad, Dr. Haridas Bagchi, Dr. H. M. Senguta, Dr. N. C. Bose Majumdar, Dr. P. L. Ganguly and others; Algebraists like Dr. F. W. Levi, Dr. R. C. Bose, Dr. S. S. Pillai, Dr. B. C. Chatterjee, Dr. A. C. Chowdhury, Dr. S. P. Bandyopadhyay and other luminaries in the field of other branches of Mathematics as well.

After the end of the regular classes I started preparing  for Examination along with one of my class mate. But during the examination he dropped appearing exam. for his preparation was not up to the mark. 
Results were out after three months and it was found that I had gone through with more than 70% marks in 4 four papers and obtained less than 60% marks in the other four papers. 
We had by this time shifted to Madhyamgram to the newly constructed house  of my father. 
My elder brother got service in Post and Telegraph as a sorter and was married.He had a son and on the occasion of his first eating rice, held at Madhyamgram, some pictures of his son were taken by Ranjit and this was , probably the last meet with Ranjit.
