Himangshu Mohan Choudhury (1941[1] – 25 April 2023) was an Indian civil servant who was credited with efforts in providing relief to refugees and army deserters during the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971.[2][3] While working as the sub-divisional officer at Sonamura in the Indian border state of Tripura, Choudhury is reported to have supervised the task of providing food and shelter to over 250,000 refugees.[3] He was honoured by the Government of India in 1972 with Padma Shri, the fourth-highest Indian civilian award.[4] The Government of Bangladesh presented him with the Outstanding Friend of Bangladesh honour in 2013.[2][3]

Choudhury grew up in a family of East Bengali heritage with strong Brahminical roots, and lived in Agartala, the capital of Tripura. His father Soroshi Mohan Choudhury was a reputed doctor in Agartala.[5]

Choudhury died on 25 April 2023, at age 81 or 82.[5][6]
