The Calcutta Public Library was established largely at the initiative of ............
Answer: D
The Calcutta Public Library was founded largely at the initiative of J.H. Stocqueler.
The Calcutta Public Library opened in 1836, and the journalist J.H. Stocqueler was its chief promoter. In 1903 Lord Curzon merged it with the Imperial Secretariat Library to form the Imperial Library, now the National Library of India.
Curzon founded the Imperial Library, not the Calcutta Public Library; K.M. Asadullah was the first Indian librarian of the Imperial Library; neither he nor F.P. Strong founded the Calcutta Public Library.
