DHAKA, May 7, 2021 (BSS) â In the wake of coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the nation will digitally celebrate the 160th birth anniversary of Biswakabi Rabindranath Tagore, who reshaped Bengali literature and music as well as arts of Indian subcontinent with contextual modernism.

Nobody influenced the minds of so many Bengali-speaking people before or after Rabindranath. His influence has been compared, by many, to that of Shakespeare in the English-speaking world.
