लोग

नाम	वर्ष	क्षेत्र	किसलिए मशहूर
Jayadeva	12th century	Sanskrit poet	Author of the Gita Govinda, the lyric cycle on Radha and Krishna that shaped devotional song and dance across India. Kenduli on the Ajay is claimed as his birthplace in Bengali tradition; a village of similar name in Odisha makes the same claim, and the question is unresolved.
Chandidas	14th–15th century	Vaishnava poet	The padavali poet associated with Nanoor in Birbhum, whose Bengali lyrics on Radha's love are among the oldest surviving in the language. Scholars generally hold that more than one poet wrote under the name.
Bir Hambir	r. c. 1586–1620	Malla king	The Bishnupur ruler who took Vaishnava initiation and began the temple-building programme that produced the town's terracotta architecture. The court patronage that founded the Bishnupur gharana of music dates from the same period.
Ramakrishna Paramahansa	1836–1886	Religious teacher	Born at Kamarpukur on the Rarh's eastern edge. His teaching, recorded verbatim by a disciple in the Kathamrita, became the foundation of the Ramakrishna Mission and of a great deal of modern Hindu thought.
Bamakhepa	1837–1911	Tantric ascetic	The cremation-ground ascetic of Tarapith, around whom that shrine's practice and its enormous pilgrim traffic are organised.
Rabindranath Tagore	1861–1941	Poet, educationist	Founded the school at Santiniketan in 1901, expanded it into Visva-Bharati in 1921 and added the rural reconstruction institute at Sriniketan in 1922 — an attempt to build an education that started from a landscape rather than from a syllabus. The campus is now a World Heritage site.
Nandalal Bose	1882–1966	Painter	Principal of Kala Bhavana and the central figure in the school of Indian modernism that grew there. He supervised the illustration of the manuscript copy of the Constitution of India.
Ramkinkar Baij	1906–1980	Sculptor	Born in Bankura to a family of modest means, trained and then taught at Kala Bhavana. His Santhal Family of 1938, built in the open in cement and laterite chips, is generally counted as the first modern public sculpture in India, and he made it about the people who lived in the villages around him.
Benode Behari Mukherjee	1904–1980	Painter and muralist	Made the Hindi Bhavana mural cycle on the medieval saints at Santiniketan while severely visually impaired, and continued working after going completely blind. Satyajit Ray, who had been his student, filmed him in The Inner Eye.
Kazi Nazrul Islam	1899–1976	Poet and composer	Born at Churulia near Asansol. Wrote in Bengali across devotional, revolutionary and romantic registers, composed several thousand songs, and is the national poet of Bangladesh — a Rarh village poet claimed by two countries.
Nabani Das Khyapa Baul	1890–1969	Baul singer	The Birbhum Baul who taught in Tagore's circle at Santiniketan and through whom the Baul repertoire entered the modern Bengali cultural mainstream.
Purna Das Baul	b. 1933	Baul singer	Nabani Das's son, and the performer who took Baul singing onto international stages from the 1960s onward. He appears on the cover of Bob Dylan's John Wesley Harding, which is how a Birbhum singing tradition ended up in the visual record of American rock music.
Gambhir Singh Mura	1929–2003	Chhau dancer	The Purulia Chhau performer whose work brought the form to national and international audiences from the 1970s. He was awarded the Padma Shri.
Amartya Sen	b. 1933	Economics	Born on the Santiniketan campus and schooled there. His work on famine, entitlement and social choice frequently returns to Bengal's 1943 famine, which fell hardest on precisely this kind of rural district.
