“Independent and…”


With reference to Dhun M. Gocal’s letter "Independent and impartial advice” (Readers’ Forum, Parsiana, October 21, 2013) I would like to point out that J. M. Chatterjee’s Atharvan Zarathustra — The Foremost Prophet was published in 1971 by the Parsi Zoroastrian Association (PZA) at 1 Saklat Place, Calcutta 700013 and not 1 Saket Place as mentioned in the letter.
My father, Rustam T. Saklath, was instrumental in the publication of this book. He had read about Chatterjee and went to Barasat (a suburb of Calcutta) to meet him. From that time on, some of Chatterjee’s books were published by the PZA. The writer is also misinformed about copies of the book not being available in Calcutta. There are several copies available at the PZA library.
