&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Ram Comul Sen &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;(1783-1844) scholar, writer and lexicographer, was born on March 15, 1783 at Garipha village in Hughli district. His father, Gokulchandra Sen, was a Persian scholar. Ram Comul&amp;#039;;s schooling started at home; then he learnt English in a school run by a priest and at a school in Kolkata run by Ramjay Datta. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ram Comul held various responsible positions in his life, starting with a job under the Chief Magistrate of Kolkata, Mr Nemy, for three years from 1800. He worked as a compositor at Dr [[william hunter]][[&amp;#039;;s]] Hindustani Printing Press in 1804 and became the manager of the press in 1811. He even worked as accountant with the [[asiatic society]] (Kolkata) and the [[sanskrit college]] for some time. Later, he became secretary to the Asiatic Society, and secretary to and superintendent (1835) of Sanskrit College. Ram Comul became principal of [[hindu college]] in 1821. He then worked as a &amp;#039;&amp;#039;dew&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;n&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (finance secretary) under Dr Wilson at the mint (1828) and the Bengal Bank (1832). He founded the Zamindar Sabha (Zamindars&amp;#039;; Society) in 1838 and was elected president of the organisation; he also worked out guidelines for the society. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ram Comul Sen was one of the founders of [[calcutta medical college]]. He was the lone Bengali member on the sub-committee of the government-run insurance company, a member of the Savings Bank committee and District Charitable Society, and principal of the Society hospital. With the help of the priest [[william carey]], he set up the Agricultural and Horticultural Society and was elected its vice-president in 1837. It is with his assistance that a Danish botanist named Dr Walich started the Calcutta Museum. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ram Comul worked to eradicate superstitions from society. He was instrumental in stopping the inhuman custom of putting the dying persons on a raft and let him or her float along the downstream of the Ganges until death. He was also against the custom of impaling a player at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Cha&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;d&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ak&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He was opposed to the Hindu College teacher [[derozio]], because, to him his idea went against the cultural and other values undermining the heritage of a people with great social and cultural achievements of hundreds of years. He played a role in the dismissal of Derozio from his job. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ram Comul made significant contribution towards the [[bangla language]] and literature. He compiled an &amp;#039;&amp;#039;English-Bangla&amp;#039;&amp;#039; dictionary, in two volumes, with the help of native scholars, working for seventeen years from 1817. He was helped by Felix Carey in this work. His other books inclue &amp;#039;&amp;#039;N&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;i&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;tikath&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;(Moral teachings, Vol. I, 1818), &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Au&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;adhs&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;r Sangraha&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (Materia medica, 1819), &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Hitopadesh&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (Moral advice, 1820) etc. [[keshab chandra sen]], one of the leaders of the Brahma Samaj, was his grandson. He died on 2 August 1844. [Md Harun-or-Rashid] [Harun-or-Rashid, Md  Department of Bangla, Rajshahi University]&lt;br /&gt;
