Educational Visit to The Asiatic Society

The Asiatic Society had the pleasure of welcoming 19 students and 2 faculty members from the Department of Bengali, Diamond Harbour Women’s University, who visited the Society today as part of an educational tour.

The visit provided the participants with an opportunity to explore the Society’s rich heritage, invaluable collections, and significant contributions to the fields of history, literature, language, and culture. We hope the experience enriched their academic learning and inspired a deeper appreciation of India’s intellectual and cultural legacy.
