Rishi Aurobindo Talent Group - my organization and my Institution


I can remember this day when I first went for scout camp at Kurseong at 1999. From Howrah district of West Bengal, total 13 boys and 2 girls went there. I became the fond of Scouting. My scout group name was Rishi Aurobindo Scout Group. Then I went many camps some district level, state level, group level. I became the organizer and trainer of the group. I got Rover leader training (senior group of scout-age from 18 to 25 years) under Bharat Scouts and Guide, at Ganganagar (West Bebgal District Scout camp site). I went to Azimganj, Narit, Birnagar etc for scout camp and outing. Even my school The Vivekananda Institution also became a camp site.


 














We every year make a grand celebration of 15th August, the Independence day of India. A colorful road rally of many pipe band teams, school teams, NCC, Civil Defense and many others sports teams and NGO groups join here. Thousands people join in this rally.
Every year we organize cultural program like Tagore birth ceremony, Bijoya Sammiloni (a get together after Duraga Puja); organize sports; Join in social service etc. Apart from these we join in 26th January Republican Day 
parade and cultural ceremony organize by Howrah District magistrate office. This is also a competition, we several time win first prize in cultural program and parade.








From 2007 we change our group name and format. Now we are Rishi Aurobindo Talent Group. But still we try to continue the chronicle of sports, culture and service.

And I, I learn organization from this group. Leadership, Cultural performance, program arrange, tour arrange, public speaking, speech etc. I learn from this group. I got many good friend here, they are still with me-Rajendra Ghosh, Kaustuv Mukherjee, Dibyendu Mukherjee etc. Rajendra or Rajen is my friend from school life, and then he pushes me in this group. Rajen,s father Radha Gobindo Ghosh is secretary of this group. He is a great organizer, we known him as Bultuda. Now we are busy with our job so we can’t give too much time for this group. But Bultuda still continue. He is main life of this group. I got friends some older or younger than me, like Shibabrata Ghosh, Sanat Pyne, Bijit Bannerjee, Abhijeet Bannerje or Shenkoda, Sovan Mukherjee, Sujoy Chakraborty, Suvendu Nandi, Sarnendu Mukherjee and many others; And above all my respectable Nilabrata Mukherjee and Basudeb Rit.  

Still I am with this group; I do not go there regularly. Because of my job, cultural program; now I am work and perform with many others cultural groups. But still I remember this small ground and children; their play, song, smile and shout; their small anger, fight, sad and cry.

  1. Once Lord Baden Powel said, ''Once a Scout, Ever Scout''. In 2009 when for the First time I went to see B.P's house in London, I felt nostalgic, and it's a Dream for every Scout to visit the Holy House of Scouting. I am blessed by my parents, to visit that place.
    To be very very Honest, Today I felt the Same vibe when I was reading through the lines of your Post, it was Crystal Clear & I was going through the Memory Lane at a Speed of 100000 Miles/Hour.
    I will wait for your more update in this page.
    Keep Smiling & Be happy.
