A Literary Society
About
Santiniketan Sahityapath started its journey on 13th November 2014. From the day the voyage begun, it had far-reaching plans. In course of time, the original name of the society has changed for various reasons. Despite the change of the name, we are still clinging to the word ‘literature’. Because our main objective is to make Santiniketan Sahityapath a true literary platform as much as possible for young and marginal writers. It is not our goal to tie up with Postmodern literature. It is our intention that unreformed free nationalistic thought should be expressed in the form of literature. Our vision is to compose and publish the art of speech together within India and abroad.
Since its beginning, Santiniketan Sahityapath has been walking steadily to reach its goal. Days have passed by peacefully. Now Santiniketan Sahityapath has become a big family. Let this Sahitya Parishad spread all over India beyond the borders of Bengal. This desire has been with us since its birth. Let all of us be ‘relatives’ – “𝑽𝒂𝒔𝒖𝒅𝒉𝒂𝒊𝒗𝒂 𝑲𝒖𝒕𝒖𝒎𝒃𝒂𝒌𝒂𝒎” (“वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम्” ) that desire is inherent in Indians.
At one point of time, we published a printed version of Sahityapath. The pandemic, like many others, has devastated our dream. But the online version of Santiniketan Sahityapath (YouTube and Face Book Page in Bengali and Hindi version) has been possible, at least they have touched many distant islands of literature. Now a digital research journal named “Prantik Gabeshana Patrika” has been inaugurated which is bi-annual, multi-lingual, multi-disciplinary and peer-reviewed.
Let the courtyard of Santiniketan Sahityapath be the mouthpiece of young and marginal writers. Let it flourish in the new feast of literature – this is basically our purpose and prayer.
Please join with Santiniketan Sahityapath and be our family member.
