When he joined this profession while still in college, it was by accident, but the continuance has certainly been by choice and passionate involvement. He pursued his studies and his profession simultaneously, and in all these years, he has enjoyed overcoming challenges with a clear, logical mind and a practical approach. He has all along been driven by the broader perspectives and larger socio-economic impact that a particular event or chain of events is likely to have. Financial journalism in India was at its nascence when I joined back in 1989. It has come a long way since then, giving me the opportunity to grow with the profession.
Over this period, he has also had the chance of working for an international news agency like AFP as well as the London Observer on a special editorial project. Ritwik has also authored a number of books in Bengali --- “Swore Byanjone”, a book of nursery rhymes, ‘Offbeat: Collection of Political and other anecdotes’, travelogues and novellas like ‘Grihabrobesh’, ‘Proyodarshini Toke’. One of them, Chin: Mao Theke Jemin, (China: From Mao to Jemin), tracing China’s transition from the Mao era to the Ziang Jemin regime, also received the Kavi Satyen Dutta Memorial Award.
Ritwik has had the privilege of teaching financial journalism as a guest lecturer at Calcutta University and Burdwan University and was also invited to speak at The Economic Forum organised by The Institute of Eastern Studies, Warsaw, Poland, and at the Energy Forum organised by the same institute for three consecutive years (2014 , 2015, 2016).ver menos
