Bihar Buddhiwadi Samaj
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bihar Buddhiwadi Samaj (Bihar Rationalist Society) is a rationalist group based in Patna, Bihar, India. It is an affiliate of Federation of Indian Rationalist Associations and an associate member of International Humanist and Ethical Union. As its website[1]proclaims, Bihar Buddhiwadi Samaj is a non-profit, educational membership-society for promoting rationalism, humanism, atheism and secularism. The Society was founded in 1985 by Dr. Ramendra who teaches philosophy in Patna University. Dr. Kawaljeet is at present the president of the Society. She has done her Ph.D. in philosophy from Patna University. Last year the Society celebrated Twenty years of its existence. Keeping in mind the increase in the scope and influence of its work and the cooperation received at national and international level, its name was changed to "Buddhiwadi Samaj" (Rationalist Society) on this occasion.
