Shonar Toree: Children's library in Dobandi

On 28 March 2009, Citizens' Initiative was able to start a children's library in Dobandi, Singur. We started with 40 books donated by various well-wishers and some CI members. Later we added more books to the library. Some were again donated by well-wishers whereas others were bought.

CI would like to thank Nilanjan Das, Moinak Biswas, Parjanya Sen, Paromita Chakravarti and Rwitayan Mukherjee for donating books to this library. Madhura Chakraborty, Saptarshi Chakraborty and Trina Nileena Banerjee also donated books.
