Evaluative Report of the Department of Bengali
Bengali as a subject came into being right at the inception of Dinhata College in 1956. Honours Course in the Department
was introduced in 1981. Studies in Bengali Language and Literature in consonance with the syllabi of the University
of North Bengal are imparted in three analogous sub-streams --Bengali Honours, Elective Bengali and Compulsory Bengali.
Compulsory Bengali is also indeed, binding the students irrespective of their divisions into Science, Arts and Commerce
streams.
