BRAC Bank Reading Cafe members discussed the famous novel Chowrangi by acclaimed author Shankar on 5 March.

This was the second gathering of the members of this reading circle, formed by a group of book enthusiasts within the organisation who wanted to promote a love of literature and encourage collaboration and critical thinking among their coworkers, a press release reads.

According to Selim RF Hussain, the Managing Director and CEO of the bank, this initiative will provide individuals with an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of different perspectives and ideas, as well as promote intellectual curiosity.
