Ishwar Pathshala

Ishwar Pathshala is a school in Comilla, Bangladesh.

The Rammala Library in Comilla is among the oldest libraries in Bangladesh. It was founded in 1912 by scholar and philanthropist Mahesh Chandra Bhattacharya (1858-1944), by expanding the earlier private library of a Sanskrit school called the Ishwar Pathsala Tol.

Mahesh Chandra established Rammala Library after his mother's name in 1912 and Ishwar Pathsala in memory of his father in 1914.[1] He established Rammala Hostel in 1916 where 84 male students live now. The Nibedita Girls Hostel established by the philanthropist in 1919 is home to 62 female students.
