Jagadish Gupta
Jagadish Gupta ((ベンガル語:জগদীশ গুপ্ত)) (July 1886 – 15 April 1957) was an Indian poet, novelist and short story writer. Known for his realistic view of life, strange character portrayal and unique narrative style, he was one of the major exponents of modern Bengali literature.

He also worked at Executive Engineer's office in Sambalpur, Orissa, at Patna High Court and at Bolpur Chawki Adalat as a typist. After retirement from his job, he settled in Calcutta. The Government of India granted him a 'Distinguished Man of Letters Allowance' in 1954.
Gupta's stories had been published in periodicals like ''Bharati'', ''Bijoli'', ''Uttara'', ''Kali-Kalam'' and ''Kallol''. His first novel ''Asadhu Siddhartha'' was published in 1928. Some of his other notable works include ''Binodini'', ''Udaylekha'', ''Meghabrito Ashani'', ''Dulaler Dola'', ''Nishedher Patabhumikay'', ''Loghu Guru'' etc.
