About
Kazi Kader Newaj was born in 1909 in Bardhaman district, in what is now West Bengal. In 1952 he made his permanent home in Mujdia village in Sreepur, and he is counted among the poets of Magura alongside Farrukh Ahmad. The district lists his house here, and a library named after him, among the places that draw lovers of literature.
There is little more on record about the house itself, so this is a short stop for readers: see the home and the Kader Newaj library, ask neighbours what they remember, and pair it with Farrukh Ahmad's village and the Sreepur zamindar house on the same day.
Getting there: Mujdia is in Sreepur upazila: take a bus to Sreepur and a van from there.
Things to do
