Dr. Benu Prasad Barua
Biography of A Regional Scholar
by Banani Bably


This is a biography of my father, Dr. Barua. I always wanted to read story books instead of textbooks when I was a little girl. One day I discovered that I can tell my feelings and my surroundings in writing to my friends. When I got married to a Muslim boy, I was disconnected from my family. For almost a decade and a half, I had no contact with my parents, siblings, or relatives. That at was a painful time in my life and in the meantime I heard my sister became depressed and suicidal. My husband helped me to reconnect with my family. To show my father and family that I care about them, I wrote this biography as a symbol of love.


"I am delighted to know about the preparation of a compilation of the works of Professor Benu Prasad Barua to celebrate his contribution to education. It is expected to be a useful reference for the students of Political Science, and they will find selected works of Professor Barua’s works in this volume, along with details on the publications." —DR. AHMED SHAFIQUL HUQUE PROFESSOR AND FORMER CHAIRMAN DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE MCMASTER UNIVERSITY, CANADA
