What it's all about
This guided heritage walk traces the life and legacy of Kadambini Ganguly, one of the first women to graduate from the University of Calcutta and the first Indian woman to practise medicine in British India. Led by Navpreet and Madhurima, the walk moves through historic Cornwallis Street, exploring institutions and reformist spaces that shaped her journey. From Bethune College to Sadharan Brahmo Samaj, participants will revisit a time when educated women were dismissed as “bad girls” yet went on to transform the course of history.
