Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 Jai Ramji Ki! Dear Friends: I just read a very interesting news story. To see the original report, please go to: http://www.anandabazar.com/15cal3.htm Here is the story in brief: Jailed Marxist leader finds peace in Harinama samkirtana. Dulal Bandopadhyay, a Marxist leader from Dumdum, Kolkata is now in the Alipore Central Jail. He is serving a life sentence for murdering two young men in 2002. Ramapada Bhattacharya, superintendent of this jail, reports that Mr. Bandopahyay and about 100 other inmates are singing at the top of their voice and dancing with Harinama twice a day, everyday. Mr. Bandopadhyay says, “I am and will remain a Marxist. But I am finding a lot of peace in Harinama. Therefore, we are chanting everyday”. Regards, Dhruba.
