Phatik Chakravorti was a typical naughty village boy about fourteen years old. He never went to school but spent the whole day flying kites and playing mischief. He was a perpetual nuisance and his widow mother did not know how to manage him. He was lazy, disobedient and wild, so not studying properly. Once his maternal uncle Bishambar visited his sister after a long. He volunteered to take Phatik to Calcutta where he would be educated. Phatik’s mother readily agreed and Phatik also was excited to go. So he readily went to Calcutta expecting a new exiting life there.
