What We Would Study Here Here we meet together to read an adapted version of a 'short story' (as published in Bliss, ESL textbook meant for Class IX, WBBSE) written by Manoj Das, the renowned Indian (Oriya) bilingual author.

How to Read a Drama Here we meet together for the first time to read a play, or a drama.
