The coordinator for International Kolkata Book Fair on Monday reported that the book reasonable had been deferred by a month, and that it has been scheduled to begin from 28 February.
The book reasonable has Bangladesh as its topic country this year.

The coordinator refered to the flood in novel Covid cases in the province of West Bengal.

"The reasonable will be held for 12 days from February 28 as the Covid circumstance has not yet worked on a lot and the Bidhannagar Municipal Corporation political decision is to be hung on February 12," President of Publishers and Book Sellers Guild Tridib Chatterjee said.

The choice was made after interview with the state government, he added.

The book reasonable, a gigantically famous occasion, will be held at Central Park in Bidhannagar, Kolkata, in North 24 Parganas area.

The book reasonable was before planned to be held from 31 January to 12 February in the wake of neglecting to take off in 2021 because of the pandemic.

"We trust the circumstance will be more helpful in end-February and March," the Guild president said.

All rules of the state government would be conformed to during the reasonable and each slow down would be around 35% more modest for keeping more open space on the ground to abstain from swarming, Chatterjee had said prior.
