Bengali new year day in Vizag
15th April was the new year day in the Bengali calender. Bengali's like always are looking for any small reason to get together, and new years day would be a very good reason.
West Vishakha Cultural Association (WVCA), which is established in Shriharipuram, organised a musical nite, we didn't have any popular singer singing, it was just all the Bengali house wives, their children who presented the show. Different poems of Kaviguru Ravindra nath Tagore were read, his composed songs were sang, Tabla specialist from Indian Navy assisted all the singers in Tabla. The function was followed by dinner.
Bengali's here in Vizag are not unaware of what Bengali culture means, we have many music teachers who are working in various institution and they teach music, dance and poetry to carry forward the rich Bengali culture among the growing generation.
