Subodh Chandra Basu Mallik (9 February 1879 – 14 November 1920), commonly known as Raja Subodh Mallik, was a Bengali Indian industrialist, philanthropist and nationalist. Mallik is noted as a nationalist intellectual who was one of the co-founders of the
Aurobindo Ghosh and financed the latter's nationalist publications including Bande Mataram.[1]
Life and works
Mallik was born in Pataldanga suburb of
Presidency College Calcutta before enrolling at Trinity College, Cambridge in 1900.[2]
He returned from England before completing his university studies, from his grateful countrymen.
In independent India, Wellington Square, the site of his palatial residence, was renamed Raja Subodh Mallik Square, while the road housing Jadavpur University, which emerged from the Bengal National College, is now called Raja Subodh Chandra Mallik Road.
