4th January, 2025 | Bethune College, Kolkata

The School for Bad Girls at Bethune School

I was in Bethune School, from where Kadambini wrote her university entrance examination in December 1878. The session was held in the very hall that served as the first classroom for that college with one student. To be in a setting that I have written about and internalised and immersed myself in for months added layers of meaning and fulfillment to just another school session with my latest book.
