The High Court (HC) on Tuesday (July 26) directed the government to take under its control the house inherited by prominent Indian actress Suchitra Sen in Pabna within seven days.
Suchitra Sen was born at the house, which was listed as vested property after her father Chidananda Dasgupta along with the family members left then East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) for India in 50s. Later in 1987, the land was leased to Jamaat run ‘Imam Gazzali Institute’. Though the ‘eksona’ lease was reportedly cancelled automatically in 1991, the land is still under the control of the institute.
