I am sorry to hurt your feelings about your grandfather,but truth must be told. Sarat Babu’s biggest mistake was not to form a coalition with Fazlul Haq in 1937. Haq begged him. His refusal pushed Haq into the lap of Muslim League and struck the death-knell of Bengali Hindus.
His second big mistake was not going to the assembly of students in 1945 where Rameswar Banerjee was shot dead by the British Police.
And the third mistake was aligning with Suhrawardy and Abul Hashim to try to form United Sovereign Bengal. He was severely reprimanded by Patel.

I again apologise for offending your feelings about your late grandfather. But a public person cannot escape criticism. He did not follow Netaji Subhas when the latter,deftly elbowed out of the Congress by Gandhiji,formed the Forward Bloc. Instead he stayed on in Congress. Why?
