Satyendranath Tagore was the first Indian to join the Formative years The second son of As was the custom of the day, he was married early in life to Civil service For a long time, only British officers were appointed to all covenanted posts.Sengupta, Nitish, "History of the Bengali-speaking People", p. 275, UBS Publishers’ Distributors Pvt. Ltd., ISBN 8174763554.] In 1832, the posts of "musif" and "sadar amin" were created and opened to Indians. [Sastri, Sivanath, " It was a daunting task to go to England and compete with the British for a position. However, his friend Satyendranath was selected for the Indian Civil Service in June, 1863. He completed his probationary training and returned to India in November 1864. Monomohun Ghose did not succeed in the examination for the ICS but was called to the bar. [Devi Choudhurani, Indira, "Smritisamput", Rabindrabhaban, Viswabharati, p. 187 Bn icon.] Satyendranath was posted to With postings at numerous towns he travelled across the country. Because of his long stay away from home many in his family visited him and stayed with him for long periods. Amongst his regular visitors were his younger brothers His posting outside Bengal helped him to learn several Indian languages. He translated While in the Maharashtra region he had close contacts with many of the leading reformers and He served in the ICS for about thirty years and retired in 1897. [Devi Choudhurani, Indira, pp. 1–2.] Women’s emancipation The position of women in his society troubled him from a young age. He used to think that the "purdah" system in his family was ‘not that of our own nation but a copy of Muslim practices’. His visit to England where he witnessed more freedom of women helped him understand the relatively poor position of women in the Indian society. After his marriage, he found in Gyanadanandini Devi an ideal partner to fulfill his thinking. When he was thrilled to witness the progress of women in the advanced society in England, he wanted to take her to England to witness the same, but his father, Devendranath Tagore, stood in the way. Back in India, Satyendranath took Gyanadanandini Devi to Mumbai, where she tried to live in the manner and style of the wives of the English officers of the ICS. When the couple returned to the ancestral home at Jorasanko for a holiday, they created a sensation in Kolkata society. They were invited to a party in the Government House (now Raj Bhavan). Breaking all traditional rules, Gyanadanandini Devi accompanied her husband to the party. There she was – ‘a lone Bengali woman in the midst of hundreds of English women.’ In 1877, he sent Gyanadanandini Devi to England with an English couple. She went with three children, a daring task in those days. They initially stayed with the family of Prasanna Coomar Tagore’s son Subsequently, Satyendranath accompanied Rabindranath Tagore in what was the latter's first visit to England. All of them returned to India in 1880. It was not only with his wife, but also his sisters that he took the lead to change things. His sister Soudamini Devi wrote, ‘The mocking we faced when we went out in the carriages is difficult to believe now.” Thus were laid the foundations of freeing the upper and middle class women from the "purdah". It was a major achievement of Satyendranath Tagore. Gyanadanandini Devi contributed in some unique ways also. As she had to go out in society, she developed a style of wearing the sari, which is broadly followed by Indian women today. She also introduced the use of proper undergarments. Gyanadanandini Devi took special interest in children’s matters and started the system of observing birthdays of children in the family, giving them gifts and celebrating the occasion. She started and edited a magazine named "Balak" for children in 1885. It was possibly the first magazine for children in the Bengali language. The magazine motivated Rabindranath to write for children. Many of the pieces included in his book "Sishu" were first published in "Balak". The magazine was wound up after a year and merged with the family magazine "Bharati". [ Bandopadhyay, Hiranmay, p. 219 ] Other activities Patriotism The Tagore family was deeply patriotic. In an age when copying the West in matters of dress and language was a fashion in high society, the Tagores stuck to wearing Indian dress and developing the Bengali language. While admiring the positive qualities of English society, Satyendranath took the path of reforming and developing Indian society. The sense of patriotism was strong in him. He was one of the persons associated with the Brahmo Samaj Satyendranath had deep regard for his father Debendranath and the religion he had taken so much pain to develop. At a considerably young age, he and Monomohun Ghose accompanied Keshub Chunder Sen for his campaign to win over the younger generation at Krishnanagar College. [Kopf, David, p. 258.] In England, even when he was busy with other work, he found time to preach the ideals of ocio-literary activities On retirement, he lived for some time in Park Street and then in Ballygunj in Kolkata. His house was a meeting place for his friends and relatives. Amongst those from outside the family who visited him regularly were Taraknath Palit, Monomohun Ghose, Satyendraprasanna Sinha, W.C. Bannerjee, Krishna Govinda Gupta, and Bihari Lal Gupta, all important people of the age in Kolkata. His house on Park Street was the centre of a literary "majlis" (gathering). The deliberations were noted in a book which was not to be circulated outside the family and it was not printed. Among the subjects discussed were “Bengali language and the Bengali character”, “The elements of poetry”, “Chivalry”, “Love in women and in men”. [Ghosh, Tapobrata, "Literature and Literaray Life in Calcutta", in "Calcutta, the Living City", Vol II, edited by Sukanta Chaudhuri, 1990/2005, p. 224, Oxford University Press, ISBN 019 563697 X.] He was president of Works "Sushila O Birsingha" (play, 1867), "Bombay Chitra" (1888), "Nabaratnamala", "Strisvadhinata", "Bauddhadharma" (1901), "Amar Balyakatha O Bombay Prabas" (1915), "Bharatvarsiya Ingrej" (1908), "Raja Rammohan Roy". Children Both his children, Surendranath Tagore (1872–1940) and Indira Devi Choudhurani (1873–1960), were well-known figures. They had the experience of English life as children. Surendranath had great command over English and had translated Rabindranath’s "Four Chapters" into English. He had produced a condensed version of the main portion of Mahabharata in Bengali. In his time, he had links with militant revolutionary organisations fighting for Indian independence from the British, which were considered terrorists by the British establishment.
