@MumukshuSavitri When I 1st read it few months bank, had dispensed it as some fake news. Later did some search for primary sources and these were my findings: a link mentioning Raju Mukherjee's book which I have since read cover to cover but couldn't find. 1/n 
@MumukshuSavitri The 2nd source mentioned in Udbodhan Patrika April 2004 edition. Knew they have e-archive. So subscribed to 2004 edition and finally got it : the full article mentioning Swamiji's exploits. Udbodhan btw was started by SV himself so only authentic pieces will get published ! 2/n
@MumukshuSavitri What's special about the piece in Bengali is it's form of storytelling, making it more tangible and palpable ! Interestingly many web media who published it got some facts wrong like it wasn't Hemchandra Ghosh (1884-1980) but Hemendranath Basu who was SV's bowling mentor ! 3/3
