Rabindranath went to Bombay from Lucknau.on 9thy Mar.He mentioned the letter written to the King to Atul Prasad;
"I must let you know how deeply I was touched by warm expression of sympathy with which you accepted appeal for Viswabharati. It was specially delighted me because of the rarity of my real understanding of its ideals which I find among my countrymen who almost rudely refuse to realise the true perpectives of their country's problems in the largest interest of humanity. Please accept my hearty thanks not only for the ready welcome you accorded to the ideals I beg to represent in my life's work but also because you had difficult respect for my personality not to hurt my cause with an impatient gesture of an indifferent charity made all the more conspicuous by the high position which you and your peers in Oudh hold in India..
