Aveek Sarkar. Sarkar in According to several Anandabazar old-timers, Arup instantly proposed the name of Aveek when the matter was discussed. While Aveek had trained in editorial work at the Sunday Times , London, in the late s, Arup is a qualified chartered accountant. Till , the two brothers worked in coordination very well without one interfering in the role of the other.

Aveek looked after the editorial issues and enjoyed his involvement in the making of the product: planning coverage and page layouts, choosing photographs, and giving headlines, at least those on the front page. Arup looked after the finances and management, including editorial of some magazines. After Aveek stepped down, Arup decided to entrust professionals in the role of editors of Anandabazar and the Telegraph.

It was in that Anandabazar , for the first time since , got an editor in Anirban Chattopadhyay who was not part of the Sarkar family. Chattopadhyay resigned in to pursue personal interests. The current editor is Ishani Datta Ray, also outside the family. In , the Telegraph too got another editor outside the family after M J Akbar when R Rajagopal, who continues till date, replaced Aveek.

Also, in , the group that had so long enjoyed the reputation of being a benevolent employer undertook a downsizing initiative and retrenched at least people from various print publication related jobs. When Aveek went overboard against the TMC government ahead of the assembly election, he used all his might — Anandabazar Patrika , the Telegraph and ABP Ananda — to launch an all-out attack on the state government and the governing party.

Aveek Sarkar's amazing career is possible largely because he is never, in any ordinary sense, quite a part of this world. Indeed he chooses to live in a world of communication, because it helps him neutralise the influence of everyday culture. As he approaches 80, it seems that he has done almost everything that is possible in a single lifetime, for he has edited two mainline newspapers: Anandabazar Patrika and The Telegraph and for some time Business Standard which was his passion.

Through the several magazines which he oversaw he plumbed the depths of the wide readership spectrum, carried the imagination of many writers to the remotest parts of the country, and gained honours in every corner of the globe. But he now declares that one of his many remaining ambitions is to observe the meeting of urban and rural readership in a much wider form.

This spells out the technical case for the use of the satellite as a close and exciting reality: it embraces aspects of a new philosophy - in many ways Sarkar's lifelong philosophy - that sprang from the perceived and enormous spiritual need for a literate world, of a new kind which, by their magnitude and imagination, might hold mankind together.

It is certainly been far greater than that accorded by popular acclaim, for he is highly and, sometimes, effectively critical of the limitations of the spread of the printed word. Radhakrishna - Bengali. Dhanni Meye. Abar Jokher Dhan.
