FIR FILED AGAINST ARTIST JOGEN CHOWDHURY IN FAKE PAINTINGS CASE




KOLKATA, OCT 19: 

Over a year after an exhibition of “fake” paintings of Rabindranath Tagore was organised by the Government College of Art and Craft here, an FIR has been filed in this regard and its principal suspended.

A group of art college students and painters have lodged an FIR with the police seeking action against those who had made and exhibited the counterfeit Tagore paintings.

The college’s principal Dipali Bhattacharya, who is retiring this month, and eminent artist Jogen Chowdhury and Dhanbad-based businessman Jayanta Banerjee, both of whom had contributed to the exhibition from their personal collection, have been named in the FIR.
