Regarding freedom fighter Nikunja Sen,I was lucky to see him,my father took me to him on sundays,I still remember him surrounded by books written by him, however since my father has passes away, i cannot remember the exact location of his house in kolkata.My father was known to him and his family members.If anybody can tell the location that would be great.
