The [[Bratachari movement]] founded by Gurusaday Dutt (from ''vrata'', vow) was a movement for spiritual and social improvement. The movement aimed at creating a sense of world citizenship as well as national awareness among people, irrespective of caste, religion, sex and age. The movement aimed to nurture the mind and the body and to encourage people to work for national and individual improvement through encouraging traditional and folk culture, especially folk dance and folk song. The ''bratacharis'', or followers of the movement, pledged themselves to build their moral fibre and serve the country on the five principles of ''knowledge'', ''labour'', ''truth'', ''unity'' and ''joy''. They aimed at developing the mind and body through dance as well as by undertaking to perform good deeds. The Bratachari movement did not catch on all over India and slowly died away after the death of its founder. In 2011, the Mamata Banerjee Government again made Bratachari education compulsory in Primary schools in West Bengal, after the Marxist Communist Government withdrew it from the School curriculum in 1984. | | *Bratacharigram (ব্রতচারি গ্রাম) (1941) |
